Britain's What's On Event Guide
Aronowitz Ensemble Chamber Music
Join us for the 9th annual Chamber Music Festival at Dartington Hall.
The Aronowitz Ensemble was formed out of the desire of seven outstanding international artists to explore and perform chamber music together in the highly adaptable combination of string sextet and piano. Since its sell-out debut at St John’s Smith Square in 2004, the Ensemble has maintained a busy schedule of engagements across the UK and beyond, covering a vast range of repertoire – familiar, neglected and new. As BBC New Generation Artists, the Ensemble featured extensively on BBC Radio 3. In addition to numerous studio recordings, broadcasts have included performances from the Wigmore and Bridgewater Halls, the Sage Gateshead, and the Aldeburgh, Bath, Cheltenham and City of London Festivals. The Ensemble made its BBC Proms debut in 2008, and returned for two further performances at the Proms in 2009.
