A celebration of new music, this concert brings together two leading advocates: British composer John Woolrich, founder of Folkestone New Music and the Sacconi Quartet, with their long history of commissioning and performing new works. We are thrilled that John has curated this concert of sparkling miniatures especially for this year’s Festival.
NB. Many of the featured composers will also be attending!
