Festival Commission Workshop with Nick Roth on his
Second Quintet for Accordion and String Quartet

This workshop explores the inspiration, the voyages and the imagining that go into the creation of new music. Nick Roth’s Second Quintet for Accordion and String Quartet, commissioned by the Festival for Dermot Dunne and the Vogler Quartet, explores the ezan, or call to prayer, in Islam and the Sufi tradition in Persian architecture. The composer will tell the story of how the work came to be, with live performance and illustration of examples from the piece by the musicians to whom it is dedicated.
