“I’m very happy to be joining Music in the Round for their 2024 festival, particularly as so many members of Ensemble 360 are old friends of mine. One of the many joys afforded by the variety of instruments in Ensemble 360 is the almost limitless scope it gives for programming any number of chamber masterpieces.”
Steven Isserlis CBE
Sheffield Chamber Music Festival Guest Curator, 2024
In 1984, a small group of people supported Peter Cropper and The Lindsays to present a two-week Beethoven Festival in the Crucible Studio. It was so popular that they decided to do it again… and here we are, 40 years later!
With your support, our 2024 Festival Curator, Steven Isserlis, has programmed an amazing festival with fantastic international artists performing in our Crucible Playhouse home. We hope you enjoy the concerts and events of the 2024 Sheffield Chamber Music Festival.
Our birthday celebrations this year will also include our community opera The Monster in the Maze later in the year. We continue our support of young musicians with the Bridge project, and we are expanding our groundbreaking in-schools composition project, WeCompose.
With your support, we can keep bringing people closer to the music for another 40 years… and beyond!
