[The Britishi MUSIC Society exists to promote a series of recitals in Belfast given by top international artists of such calibre as would normally only appear in Belfast during the Queen's University Festival. We feel that our series of concerts is as good as any you will find across the water-but our ticket prices are hard to beat! Naturally, it works out cheaper to buy a season ticket, but should you only wish to come to a few of the concerts, then please feel free to do so. The BMS can only continue with your support, so we look forward to seeing you either at one concert or at all of them. ++++ The British Music Society is run in association with the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Queen's University Belfast. We extend our grateful thanks to the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society for their permission to utilise their premises at Balmoral for two of our concerts this season. RUAS members can gain admission to each of these concerts at Balmoral at a concessionary rate.

PERFORMERS The LONTANO Ingrid Culliford (flute), David Rix (clarinet), Ruth Crouch (violin), Garth Knox (viola), Melissa Phelps (cello) and Odaline de la Martinez (piano). This is one of Britain's most exciting young ensembles, internation- ally renowned for their performances of twentieth century music in particular. This is their second visit to Belfast, having given two outstanding concerts in the 'Sonorities' festival in April 1981. ENDELLION STRING QUARTET Andrew Watkinson (violin), Louise Williams (violin), Garfield Jackson (viola) and David Waterman (cello). This quartet made a sudden and dramatic impact on the British Concert scene, gaining overnight success after their appearances at the Portsmouth International String Quartet Competition in 1979. They have now gained wide acclaim in the United States and in Europe and are in constant demand throughout Britain. This will be their first visit to Belfast. EMER BUCKLEY Ireland's most distinguished harpsichord player, Miss Buckley pursues a hectic international career, currently residing in Paris. She returns to Ireland whenever possible and, following her superb recital in Belfast last April as part of the Early Music Festival, Miss Buckley is returning to give this recital by popular demand. WALTER KLIEN Few people who listen to recordings of piano music will not have heard of Walter Klien. Renowned as being one of the greatest interpreters of piano music of the Classical period, his recordings of Mozart, Beethoven and particularly Brahms must surely be amongst any record collection. We are most fortunate to have Mr Klien in our programme, his visit forming part of a British tour. SARAH WALKER and ROGER VIGNOLES Since winning the coveted Benson & Hedges Competition, Sarah Walker has become one of Britain's most sought-after singers, both as a soloist and as part of the Songmakers Almanac, with whom she visited the Province a few years ago. Miss Walker recently gave two concerts in the 1982 Proms in London to great critical acclaim. Roger Vignoles is one of Britain's most experienced and well-known accompanists, broadcasting frequently on television and radio. Television viewers will remember his recent appearances as accompanist in the Elizabeth Schwarzkopf Masterclasses. PHILIP JONES BRASS ENSEMBLE The members of this world-famous ensemble are all leading London brass players, their reputation stretching as far afield as Australia, Japan and the Middle East. Their recordings now number nearly 40, embracing music as far apart in character as Gabrieli and Scott Joplin and their concerts are renowned for providing a great evening's entertainment.
