Founded in 2010, the Liverpool String Quartet is made up of musicians who met whilst playing together in the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. As part of a National String Quartet Foundation tour, this is the quartet’s first visit to Drogheda. The programme includes a 2007 work by Irish composer Deirdre Gribbin, a set of four tangos, arranged by the quartet and closing with Zemlinsky’s Quartet No. 1 – simply a masterwork of the genre.
