Quartet for the End of Time: Mercury Quartet at the French Institute

Arthur Keegan-Bole, 1st June

Not being a French national and having only just heard about their excellent series of Tuesday night concerts, this was my first visit to the Institut Français, Kensington. This was the last in a series of concerts focusing on French music, moving chronologically toward contemporary/modern composers over the course of the series.
