“…the magnificent, seasoned ensemble of the Coull” The Strad

This concert is a rare opportunity to hear the string trio arrangement by Dimitri Sitkovetsky of Bach’s Goldberg Variations.

The Wihan Quartet has been described by International Record Review as one of the best quartets in the world today.
