As such, it is fast becoming recognised as the leading ensemble of its generation. Their programme combines Twentieth Century ‘classics’ with new works and transcriptions. Finally, they give a rare performance of Górecki’s Concerto Op.11 and the UK premiere of Penderecki’s most substantial chamber work to date.
