Join us for a memorable evening featuring Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time, a work of profound beauty and spiritual depth.

Composed during Messiaen’s time in a wartime prison camp, this piece explores time, endurance, and transcendence through its unique rhythms and harmonies.

The first half of the concert will feature a guided exploration of the quartet by our Artistic Director, highlighting key themes and movements to enhance your listening experience.

The second half will be dedicated to a full performance of this iconic work, followed by a festive post-concert reception where you can celebrate the season with our musicians and fellow concertgoers.
