The Chiaroscuro Quartet comprises violinists Alina Ibragimova (Russia) and Pablo Hernán Benedí (Spain), Swedish violist Emilie Hörnlund and cellist Claire Thirion (France). Dubbed 'a trailblazer for the authentic performance of High Classical chamber music’ in Gramophone, this quartet performs on gut strings and with historical bows. For their inaugural concert at Lakeside they are joined by Matthew Hunt performing Mozart’s much-loved Clarinet Quintet, one of the great works of the chamber repertory.
