The dynamic combination of the outstanding Carducci Quartet and striking soprano, Sylvia O’Brien, perform a concert at the sumptuous, colourful setting of the National Botanic Gardens. Celebrated for their diverse approach to repertoire, the Carduccis will perform two magnificent string quartets by siblings Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn, alongside works for the medium by Caroline Shaw and Rebecca Clarke. Sylvia O’Brien joins the Quartet for Siobhán Cleary’s dramatic The Dole of the King’s Daughter, and with cellist, Emma Denton, will also give the world première of Cleary’s Liadán for soprano and cello, commissioned by the DICMF in 2020.
