  1. Court Studies, from The Tempest - Thomas Adès
  2. Quatuor pour la Fin du Temps, 'Quartet for the End of Time' - Olivier Messiaen

The opening concert of a weekend of fresh and innovative chamber music performed by members of the wonderfully quirky instrumental ensemble the ‘Dr. K Sextet’. Listeners will be able to experience ‘Quartet for the End of Time’ by Olivier Messiaen, famously premiered at the Stalag VIIIA prisoner-of-war camp in Görlitz, Germany and often referred to as the ‘gentlest apocalypse imaginable’. This is complimented by Ades’s theatrical suite ‘Court Studies from ‘The Tempest’’, and will be performed in near darkness for a performance truly focussed on the sound and eternal vision of Messiaen’s masterpiece.
