About the event
Join us at the Weston Library for a free pop-up concert from the Oxford Chamber Music Festival's Next Generation Artists initiative – giving a platform to rising stars among British chamber groups.
The Kleio Quartet is the winner of the 2023 Carl Nielsen International Chamber Music competition, and a BBC New Generation Artist. Their programme embraces Elgar‘s single, elegiac 'String Quartet', the tiny, exquisite 'Five Movements' by Webern, and Haydn‘s joyful ‘Frog’ quartet.
This festival fringe event is part of the Oxford Chamber Music Festival, which every year brings together some of the most exciting classical musicians in Europe to live and play together for a week amongst the dreaming spires.
