Haydn in Oxford

The Holywell Music room has been host to performances of Haydn’s works since the early 1770s when the venue played an important part in popularising his music. Today we are transported back to the 18th century with sparkling performances of Haydn’s songs and chamber music. The Carducci String Quartet plays the Quartet Op.20 No.4, while former Oxford Song Young Artist Angharad Rowlands and our Artistic Director Sholto Kynoch perform some of Haydn’s English songs.

Sadly Doric String Quartet are no longer able to join us for this event, but we're delighted that Carducci Quartet will perform instead.
