In their final year as Artists in Residence, the Maxwell Quartet
perform two strikingly different programmes. On Saturday 23 July
at 7.30pm, Prokofiev’s 1st string quartet, with a distinctly ‘neo-
classical’ flavour, sits alongside Dvo?ák’s rhythmic and spirited
Quartet in G and Haydn’s perky and playful String Quartet Op.77

No.1. Tickets £30/£25 (conc. £15).

Well known for their ability to blend classical and folk music,

Maxwell Quartet end their residency on a high, sharing the stage
with two outstanding Scottish performers on Sunday 24 July at
4pm: emerging young accordionist Ryan Corbett and tenor and
BBC Radio Scotland broadcaster Jamie MacDougall. The Quartet

perform a delicious blend of the serious (Brahms), the not so
serious (Haydn) and Roxanna Panufnik’s ‘The Audience’. Not to
be missed. Tickets £25 (conc. £15).

Music and storytelling go hand in hand. To celebrate Visit
Scotland Year of Stories, Live Music Now Scotland artists
Ruaridh Geddes (fiddle) and Neil Sutcliffe (accordion) perform
Traditional Tunes for Tiny People aged three to seven – and their

grown-ups – on Tuesday 26 July at 11.30pm, 2pm and 4pm in
