Join Music in the Round & Ensemble 360 for this year's festival Friday 16 – Saturday 24 May, as they welcome some of the world's finest musicians and stellar guest artists.
Festive sounds will ring out across Sheffield this December. Expect classic carols, choral repertoires, and a jolly set from the city’s premiere comedy-ukulele quintet.
A tour through the wondrous world of chamber music, specially created for young audiences. This concert combines some of the most well-known music ever written, alongside playful storytelling in Berio’s entertaining Opus Number Zoo.
A trailblazer in the worlds of jazz and raga, Utsav Lal will improvise a unique live score for Carl Dreyer’s emotional masterpiece The Passion of Joan of Arc at the atmospheric Abbeydale Picture House in Sheffield on 15th May
Donald Grant, Elias Quartet violinist, is also a master of the folk fiddle. Raised in the Highlands, Donald was immersed in Gaelic song and Scottish music from an early age.
Music in the Round and Ensemble 360 host an annual Festival each May in the Tanya Moiseiwitsch Playhouse and other venues around the city to present informal and inventive performances of classical and modern classical music.
Music in the Round is the leading national promoter of chamber music in the country, delivering hundreds of events in the city and around the country each year.
As we start warming up for a very busy summer in Sheffield, May is also looking pretty jam-packed with a whole host of great events happening across the city.
Schubert's rousing Octet (perhaps the piece most closely associated with Ensemble 360 over their two decades) showcases the range and breadth of the ensemble, with its jaunty, memorable tunes and high drama. It is coupled here with two works written especially for the group.
