Festival

The first concert of our 2023 May festival. Join our musicians for an eclectic mix of chamber music by Beethoven, Messiaen, Ades and Mendelssohn.

In the first of our two late night concerts of May 2023 we present Beethoven’s unparalleled String Quartet No.14 Op.131.

A lunchtime feast of Sonatas by Poulenc and Ligeti in Stamford Arts Centre Ballroom.

Chausson, Herbert Howells, Debussy and Ravel performed by all twelve of our SIMFest 2023 musicians.

The second of our two late night concerts, Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time. Hauntingly beautiful, both powerful and otherworldly in equal measure.

We couldn’t think of a better way to start our final day of concerts than with another of the best of string chamber music repertoire; Mozart’s Divertimento for String Trio K.563.

Our May 2023 Festival comes to a close with Françaix, Fauré and Frank Bridge.

The opening concert of the first Winter Edition of SIMFestival will include Mendelssohn’s epic String Quartet Op.44 No.3 in Eb

A late night performance of music spanning almost three hundred years with audience seating in the round for a fully immersive experience.

The finale of our first winter festival brings together fourteen fantastic musicians for a Mendelssohn String Symphony, Tchaikovsky’s luscious Serenade for Strings and the fiendish Concerto for Strings in D by Stravinsky.
