HARD RAIN SOLOISTENSEMBLE The Hard Rain Soloist Ensemble is the only professional musical ensemble in Northern Ireland to specialise in the performance of modern and contemporary repertoire. Its Mini-Fest programme features two giants of 20th- century music, with works that are haunting and beautiful in equal measure. Quartet for the End of Time is one of the iconic pieces of the century, a masterpiece written when the composer was a German prisoner of war. It is the main focus of the concert: Quatrain was written in response to the Quartet, and in homage to its composer.
