The Denman Street quartet performs a diverse range of repertoire from classical and original works, to music from the swing era, contemporary repertoire and film music.
The Quartet is formed of four of London’s finest orchestral and chamber musicians and between them they play the full range of the clarinet family from big to small, allowing them to share a varied display of sound-worlds in their performances.
As well as traditional recitals the quartet also explores multi-sensory experiences, combining their music with other arts and genres in their “music’n’more” series. This can involve pairing music with food and wine, interweaving music with literature and poetry or working with other art forms such as dance, theatre and art.
Recent projects include their Armistice centenary memorial concert, which explored the journey of music through the great world wars with poetry and readings. These collaborations aim to open up classical music to a wider audience and allow everyone to enjoy music in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
The quartet believe that the future of music is in inspiring today’s younger audiences. They set out to keep classical music alive and relevant in children’s minds for years to come through workshops and educational performances.
