Dante String Quartet with Tim Boulton (viola)
Tavistock Parish Church - 31/05/10
Festival's first-rate final night
The highlight of the annual Dante Festival is usually the closing concert. This year the internationally-acclaimed Dante String Quartet was joined by leading UK violist, Tim Boulton, now living in Cornwall, who wrote:
'Many thanks Philip - much appreciated!'
Dante Quartet leader, Krysia Osostowicz, also commented:
'Thanks so much not only for a lovely review, but for your loyal support of the Dante Festival! We were particularly pleased to see such nice big audiences. I'm sure your preview helped to bring people in!'
