Ensemble 360 brings the Sheffield Chamber Music Festival to a thrilling conclusion with a programme showcasing their endless versatility and brilliance.
Benjamin Britten was a mentor to Oliver Knussen, and in turn, Knussen had a huge influence on our guest curator Helen Grime. This sequence of great British music is topped off by something completely different: lavish tunes, warm radiance and a jubilant ending courtesy of Johannes Brahms. The perfect finale!
