27th February
Highgate Modern Homes

Professor David Porter and Elspeth Clements
Highgate is the location of perhaps the largest and finest concentration of modern homes anywhere in Britain, but because of the historic context and the pressure on land many are hidden away. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Highgate Society, Elspeth Clements and David Porter curated an exhibition in the School Museum over the October half-term holiday to showcase Highgate’s pioneering spirit. David Porter is Emeritus Professor of Architecture at the Glasgow School of Art, and Elspeth Clements is a practising architect and Chairman of the Highgate Society Planning Committee.

String Dimensions

String Dimensions, founded by Bogdan Vacarescu in 2017, is a London-based chamber ensemble of international soloists.

String Dimensions is no ordinary chamber ensemble. United by a mutual interest in performing music all too rarely heard in today’s concert programmes, they have given the UK premieres of Antonio Bazzini’s works and perform neglected repertoire such as Fritz Kreisler’s String Quartet and works by Enescu and Cherubini. Their programmes also include original arrangements of well-known classical works for string duos, trios, quartets and larger groups.

The ensemble features Allegri Quartet cellist Vanessa Lucas-Smith, Canadian violist Brooke Day, Japanese violinist Akiko Ishikawa and it is led by the Romanian violinist Bogdan Vacarescu.

They all perform internationally in the most prestigious festivals and venues such as London’s Kings Place, Sydney Opera House, Cheltenham Music and Melbourne International Arts Festivals, as well as on radio and television worldwide.

 

Programme:

Grieg – String Quartet No 2 in F major (Unfinished)
Kreisler – String Quartet in A minor
Interval
Bazzini – String Quartet No 6 in F major
Liszt – Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (quartet arrangement)
