Endymion performing Fratres by Arvo Pärt at the Southbank Centre

Here’s another video of us performing at the Southbank Centre in September.  As part of our celebration of Arvo Pärt, we performed several well-known chamber works by the 76-year-old composer, including Summa for string quartet and Fratres, on this video, in the version for string quartet.  We also teamed up with EXAUDI to perform his wonderfully contemplative Stabat Mater – a video of that is coming soon!

You can see us perform all three of these wonderful pieces again on Saturday night at the Sound Festival, Scotland, alongside three great new commissions by Philip Venables (Endymion’s Artistic Director), James Weeks (EXAUDI’s Artistic Director) and Andrew Hamilton.  Tickets are available here!

 

Arvo Pärt – Summa

Here’s a wonderful video of our performance a few weeks ago at the Southbank Centre of Arvo Pärt’s ‘Summa’ for string quartet.

We’re playing this beautiful piece again on 4th November at Opera North, 12th November at Sound Festival in Scotland and on 6th March 2012 at City Music Society at the Bishopsgate Institute.  Do come and join us to hear it again!
