Kyan String Quartet
The award-winning Kyan Quartet join us this week, bringing together four exceptional musicians from the United Kingdom, the United States, China, and France.
Prizewinners of the 2024 Royal Over-Seas League competition and 2025 City Music Foundation artists, the Kyan String Quartet enjoys a busy and vibrant career, having performed across Europe and Asia in venues including Wigmore Hall, St. Martin in the Fields, Beethoven-Haus Chamber Music Hall, Shanghai Opera House and Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra Hall.
Recent highlights include three performances at Milton Court as part of the Carducci Quartet’s Shostakovich cycle project, and a tour across Scotland as Tunnell Trust award holders. The quartet are looking forward to debuts at Barnes and Bournemouth music societies, and will return to Conway Hall this November to continue their ongoing collaboration with guitarist Ahmed Dickinson. The quartet are grateful to be supported by Le Dimore del Quartetto.
Programme to include:
Beethoven String Quartet No 15 in A minor, op.132
Danish String Quartet arrangements of Scandinavian folk tunes
The next lunchtime concert is on Thursday 19 February and will be performed by the Jubilee String Quartet.
Join the LSE Choir and Orchestra on Tuesday 31 March for the LSE Spring Concert in the beautiful surroundings of St Clement Danes Church.
