"The Jarualdas are utterly committed & passionately physical players... it sounds absurd to speak of chamber music red in tooth and claw, but that is what we got – thrilling performances"🤩

Generous review of Thursday's Gateway gig from Chris Kettle:

Reflecting on generous words from reviewer Chris Kettle following last September's residency at the Corvedale Festival:

"Their playing of ‘Death and the Maiden’ took no prisoners: they projected it with all the force and passion they could muster."

Yes, we did 🎻🎻🎻🎻🔥

Just sharing this extract from the viola part of Britten's 2nd string quartet - this is territory a viola should never venture into (top F# ?!?!) 🤣 but I have conquered my fear of heights and am loving every minute with my gorgeous @jarualdaquartet.bsky.social comrades 🤩

Anyone who helps other people enjoy music is, to my mind, a hero. And anyone who teaches them to play an instrument is a superhero

Shrewsbury in Shropshire is a nice place to visit because there are lots of things to see and do. This includes visiting a castle, an abbey, a prison, glorious gardens and other historical buildings.
