Octagon Music, in its 36th season, presents one of the widest ranges of chamber music concerts offered by any Music Society. Our aim is to present a broad spectrum of music played by top class artists and we have built a reputation for choosing young performers of great promise who have gone on to distinguished careers. We encourage our audiences to be adventurous in their musical tastes so we hope the programme offers something for everybody and the opportunity to try something new. The Clarendon Muse is ideal for chamber music, with excellent acoustics - “the best north of the Wigmore Hall”. There are ample parking facilities and level access.

ENDELLION STRING QUARTET (appear by arrangement with Hazard Chase Ltd)
Andrew Watkinson (violin), Ralph de Souza (violin),
Garfield Jackson (viola), David Waterman (cello)
Haydn: Quartet in E flat Op 76 No 6 Shostakovich: Quartet in C minor No 8 Op 110 Beethoven: Quartet in B flat Op 130 with Grosse Fuge
The Endellion String Quartet is arguably the finest Quartet in Britain today but it also has an international reputation with regular world wide tours. “There’s always a feeling when listening to the Endellion Quartet that you’re listening to the Urtext method of quartet playing. Maybe 35 years of playing together has brought to them as a group a
uniformity of thought and instinct that allows them to play as a single entity.” (The Gramophone)
Sunday 22 November 2015 at 4.00pm
HANNAH MARCINOWICZ (saxophone) JOHN REID (piano) Programme to include:
J.S.Bach: Sonata Granados: Intermezzo from Goyescas Rachmaninov: Vocalise Op 34 No 14 Terry Trower: A Day In New York City Pedro Iturralde: Pequena Czarda
Hannah last performed for us in 2008 and she performed so superbly that we have invited her back. She has become an ambassador for her instrument, often
regarded undeservedly as a poor relation in classical music. "Wittily crafted, brilliantly executed" (The Times). Sunday 31 January 2016 at 4.00pm
ALEXANDER ULLMAN (piano)
Haydn: Variations in F minor, Hob.XVII.6 Ravel: Noctuelles and Oiseaux (Miroirs) Chopin: Nocturnes Op 27 No 1 and Op 55 No 1 Chopin: Ballade No 4 in F minor Op 52 Liszt: Sonata in B minor Born in 1991 in London, Alexander studied at the Purcell School and the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. “His performance of the Chopin fourth Ballade will live in my mind’s ear for ever: every nuance perfectly judged, poised and placed. His sound is unique.'’ (Seen and Heard International).
Sunday 28 February 2016 at 4.00pm
BUSCH ENSEMBLE (piano trio) Matthieu van Bellen (violin), Ori Epstein (cello)
Omri Epstein (piano)
Theo Loevendie: Ackermusik (1997) Mendelssohn: Trio in D Minor Op 49 Brahms: Trio in C Op 87 Named after the legendary violinist Adolf Busch, this London-based young piano trio has emerged as the leading piano trio among the new generation, receiving enthusiastic responses from audiences and critics across the UK and Europe. "The group already play as though musically joined at the hip." (The Times). Sunday 17 April 2016 at 4.00pm
JESSIE ANN RICHARDSON (cello) SIMON CALLAGHAN (piano)
(Supported by the Countess of Munster Musical Trust) Schubert: Arpeggione Sonata Bruch: Kol Nidrei Phibbs: Sonatine (2011) Chopin: Cello Sonata Jessie is establishing herself at the forefront of young instrumentalists here and all over Europe, both as a soloist and as a founding member of the renowned Piatti String Quartet who played for us in 2014. Her accompanist, Simon Callaghan, is recognised as an exciting performer of the new generation.
