Britten String Quartet No.3 Op.94
Mendelssohn String Quartet No.5 in E flat Op.44 No.3

The Endellion's last concert in the 2011-12 season at West Road Concert Hall will be on 9th May 2012:
Beethoven String Quartet in B flat Op.18 No.6
Mendelssohn String Quartet No.6 in F minor Op.80
TBC Quintet with Cambridge University Student

Back to Beethoven with the most revolutionary of his early quartets, to be followed by Mendelssohn’s stormy and tragic last quartet, written in the state of anguish and devastation caused by his sister Fanny’s death. Finally, we shall have a mystery item for which we shall be joined by a Cambridge student.
