BELINFANTE QUARTET

January 26, 2025 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM

JUBILEE CONCERT
With this concert we celebrate the 25th anniversary of our concert series Chamber Music in De Hoop.
(2:00 p.m. lecture about De Hoop in rectory)

Since its founding in 2016, the Belinfante Quartet has received much praise for its inventive programming, which pairs well-known masterpieces with hidden gems.
In this programme, the hidden gem is the piece “Baile” by the contemporary English composer Rhiannon Randle (1993 – ), performed between the string quartets of the great
masters Benjamin Britten and Joseph Haydn.

For the concert, which starts at 3 p.m. as usual, you can reserve seats via our website www.schuilkerkdehoop.nl .

La Serenissima

Explores the influence of Gustav Mahler and his views on Nature.

A musical home is explored in all three works – Haydn became known as the Father of the String Quartet, often embuing Austrian folk melodies into his works.

A new work by British composer Rhiannon Randle looks at her musical home – Irish Folk Music

Benjamin Britten was exploring his connections to home – England and Venice and to transcendence in his final time on earth as he neared his own death.
