WATKINS Broken Consort (20')
SWEENEY New Work [World Premiere] (10’)
SCHUBERT Octet (60’)

Schubert's rousing Octet (perhaps the piece most closely associated with Ensemble 360 over their two decades) showcases the range and breadth of the ensemble, with its jaunty, memorable tunes and high drama. It is coupled here with two works written especially for the group.

Huw Watkins’ Broken Consort premiered in 2008 and features different instrument groups and fanfares, before all 11 Ensemble 360 players come together for the exuberant finale. It is followed by the world premiere of a brand-new commission from Royal Philharmonic Society 2024 Composer Aileen Sweeney. A great way to start the 20th birthday celebrations!

To celebrate 20 years of extraordinary music-making, ticket-holders are invited to join us for a free glass of wine or soft drink in the Crucible bar after the concert.
