The Rossetti Ensemble

​        piano quartets and more.......

Picture
 The Rossetti Ensemble was created in 2018 from long-standing collaborations between   pianist John Lenehan, violinist Sara Trickey, violist Sarah-Jane Bradley and cellist Tim   Lowe. Named after Dante Gabriel, the eminent British poet and Pre-Raphaelite artist, the   group is passionate about the repertoire of the era and composers who derived inspiration   from his work during the late romantic period and early 20th Century. In addition to piano   quartets the group is flexible, working with other high profile instrumentalists, producing imaginative, varied programmes.  Recent appearances included the world premiere of "Crystal" for piano quartet by Nathan   Williamson at the grand finale of the William Alwyn Festival, and warmly received London   concerts at King's Place and Conway Hall. Forthcoming major concerts include Cambridge  IAML Festival, the Hertfordshire Festival of Music, Little Missenden Festival, York Chamber Music Festival, Kendal Midday Series, Chester Celebrity Concerts, Cratfield Music and Norwich Chamber Music.The group's current repertoire includes works commissioned by the Schubert Ensemble who, after disbanding in 2018 set up a trust to promote and fund these works- this year the Rossetti's feature David Matthews’ piano quartet (celebrating his 80th birthday), and in 2024, Judith Weir’s piano quartet will be performed in her 70th birthday year.                    ​
