About the event
THE BRIDGE QUARTET

Michael Schofield viola Lucy Wilding cello
Named after the fine English composer and violist Frank Bridge, the history of the Bridge Quartet has been sprinkled with “discoveries” of English quartet repertoire. As chosen artists for EM Recordings, the quartet members have relished opportunities to research and perform works by Norman O’Neill, Sir Hubert Parry, Goossens, Hurlstone and Howells to name a few. Recent explorations on EMR CDs have been Ivor Gurney's twin song cycles, with tenor Charles Daniels and baritone Roderick Williams. “this brilliant performance by Williams, Dussek and the Bridge Quartet, make this disc an absolute must-have, not just for Gurney aficionados but for all lovers of English song, indeed all song” Opera Today June 2020
