The NCPA presents the 31st edition of Artie’s Festival this month. The programming for the festival, curated since its inception by Gauthier Herrmann and NCPA Chairman Mr. Khushroo N. Suntook , includes well-known chamber masterpieces, relatively lesser-known compositions and reductions of famous orchestral works. In this edition, Artie’s presents the series called Mostly Beethoven which continues with the Beethoven String quartet cycle.

Artie’s Festival, founded at the NCPA in 2008, has since toured the Gulf, Southeast Asia and Europe. Known for inventive programming, the ensemble’s memorable highlights include arrangements of Bruckner’s 7th Symphony and Mahler’s 4th Symphony with Dame Felicity Lott.

Beethoven: String quartet No. 6, Op. 18

Beethoven: String quartet Op. 95

Brahms: String quintet No. 2, Op. 111 (Guest Artiste: Ralph de Souza)
