About

Over the years, many British composers have been inspired by John Dowland’s ‘lachrimae’ a set of pavans for lute or viols, published in London in 1604. This concert presents the UK premiere of Lachrimae by Peter Fribbins (originally premiered in Ohio, USA), alongside his own arrangement of Dowland’s ‘Lacrimae Verae’. Mozart’s ‘Spring’ quartet and Beethoven’s final masterpiece for quartet, Op. 135, complete the concert.
