Berkeley Ensemble Octet

This Ensemble was formed in 2008 by a group of musicians who met as members of the Southbank Sinfonia. Their ascent since then has been rapid and they are chosen artists for Making Music. An octet is not a common assemblage for most music clubs so we are indeed fortunate to have such a respected group to bring our winter season to a close. They intend to play the famous Schubert Octet which will be known to many but will we all know the Howard Ferguson Octet?
