Summary

The Liverpool String Quartet and clarinetist Thomas Verity perform works by Glass, Reich, Barber and Gershwin in the Music Room at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall.

Why it's fantastic

Experience the rhythmic pulse of American minimalism before the famous, weeping melody of Barber’s Adagio takes hold of the room. This set explores the cinematic side of the string quartet, closing with a playful, high-energy arrangement of Gershwin’s most celebrated jazz-age masterpiece that feels perfectly suited to a relaxed afternoon.
