THE BRITISH MUSIC SOCIETY OF YORK The BMS is one of many similar voluntary organisations throughout the country, 14 in Yorkshire alone, whose prime purpose is to promote chamber music recitals by musicians of the highest calibre.

The quotations given below are from reviews given in the Yorkshire Post and Yorkshire Evening Press during our last season.

Its expressive features, disciplined heartfelt, were enunciated with tonal warmth and faultless intonation." (D.W., YP) Joachim Piano Trio "Rebecca Clarke's Trio of 1921 evoked by far the greatest range of interpretation.... The Joachim gave it their soul, and it showed." (Martin Dreyer, YEP) Arienski Ensemble "... the music was allowed to breathe every drop of its fragrance. The conclusion was greeted with thunderous silence, the ultimate respect an audience can deliver." (Martin Dreyer, YEP) Coull String Quartet "Shostakovich's Quartet No. 8 .... was played with conviction and strong but disciplined emotion." (Charles Hunt, YEP) Murray McLachlan "Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy ... was so much more than an essay in Bravura. It showed McLachlan, 24, as one of the outstanding contemporary British pianists in both technique and insight."

They have made a specia- lity of the quartets of Britten and Prokofiev, but their concert for us offers the intriguing combina- tion of Bartók's astringent Fourth Quartet and the Quartet by one of the greatest of opera composers, Verdi. The Hungarian writer György Kroó has described the Fourth Quartet as representing the moment in Bartók's development when "he first glimpses infinite horizons and in one sweeping glance perceives his own realm in its entirety. Its light and radiance are like the sun: we must be prepared for it, otherwise we may be blinded."

She has only recently begun to appear beyond what is left of the Iron Curtain, but her playing has always excited enthusiastic critical response. Miss Dimitrova's recital for us opens with the most demanding and perhaps the finest of Bach's key- board partitas and closes with Chopin's magis- terial Third Sonata. She also plays three pieces from Ravel's richly evocative Miroirs the haunt- ing Oiseaux tristes, the undulating Une barque sur l'ocean and one of the composer's most brilliant and colourful essays in the Spanish style, Alborado del gracioso.

Thursday 14th February at 8 p.m. ALLEGRI STRING QUARTET Peter Carter & David Roth (violins) Roger Tapping (viola) Bruno Schrecker ('cello) String Quartet in G, Op.18 No.2 String Quartet No.3 (1927) String Quartet No.5, Op.92 Beethoven Bridge Shostakovich FINAL CONCERT OF THIS SEASON ●Thursday 14th March at 8 p.m. CAPRICORN Concert supported by the Radcliffe Trust Christopher O'Neal (oboe) Douglas Paterson (viola) Lesley Hatfield (violin) Timothy Mason ('cello) The Allegri must surely be one of the country's most popular and enduring string quartets. They certainly need no introduction to BMS audiences, with whom they have always been great favourites. Their programme reflects the group's wide-ranging tastes and untiring championship of 20th-century British music. The Third Quartet, composed between 1925 and 1927, represented a profound change in Frank Bridge's compositional style and shows affinities with Berg's Lyric Suite. Shostakovich's Fifth Quartet, written in the darkness of the late Stalin years, is a heady mixture of lyricism, passion and irony, with many pre-echoes of the Tenth Sym- phony. Tickets £5.00 (Students £2.50; Youth & Music members £2.00) from Ticket World, 6 Patrick Pool, York (York 644194) or at the hall before each concert. Information about Youth & Music may be obtained from Claire Wilson, Yorkshire Youth & Music, Dean Clough Industrial Park Ltd., Halifax HX3 5AX. Tel: Halifax (0422) 345631. Oboe Quartet Divertimento in E flat, K.563 String Trio Oboe Quartet in F, K.370 Jennifer Fowler Mozart Alfred Schnittke Mozart Concert supported by the RVW Trust Capricorn is one of the busiest mixed ensembles in the country, with a strong commitment to contem- porary music and to Russian composers. They come to us in the form of an oboe quartet and in a nicely counterpoised programme perform two oboe quartets and two string trios. Two works, one of each kind, are by living composers; the others are by Mozart, the bi- centenary of whose death falls this December. The light-sounding title Divertimento disguises one of Mozart's most substantial and finest chamber works. Alfred Schnittke is at the forefront of the Soviet avant-garde; in his delightfully eclectic music, works for stringed instruments figure prominently.
