They perform works written for small mixed combinations of strings, piano, wind and voice, with a repertoire which ranges from the baroque to the contemporary and mixes well-known masterpieces with new discoveries. The group’s particular passion is to bring to the fore works by well-loved composers which are seldom heard because of their unusual instrumental combination. Conchord made its Wigmore Hall debut in October 2002 and followed with a European debut at the Schleswig-Holstein festival. The group performs across the UK, Europe and North America and make regular live appearances on BBC Radio 3. Conchord has a busy recording career, having already made several discs for Sanctuary Classics/ASV, Black Box and Quartz. Latest projects are Bach and Beethoven recordings for the Quartz label. |
