Please note the following programme change: Due to Covid, Jonathan Bloxham will be replaced by cellist Christopher Murray of the Heath String Quartet. 

The Northern Chords Ensemble presents a programme for oboe and strings, curated by its founder and cellist Jonathan Bloxham who made his Festival debut in the 2021 Autumn Festival conducting the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The ensemble features present and future artists from the acclaimed Northern Chords Festival, which brings together the most exciting young musicians from across Europe.

This evening’s programme is built around Mozart’s sublime Oboe Quartet featuring Olivier Stankiewicz, principal oboe of the London Symphony Orchestra: and includes works by Couperin, Britten and Elgar.
