A programme that balances miniature gems with one of the chamber repertoire's true summits. **PROGRAMME:** **Haydn** | Quartet in F Op.77/2 **Rebecca Clarke** | Poem **Puccini** | Crisantemi **Schubert** | Quartet in G D887 **EDINBURGH QUARTET:** Sadie Fields • *violin* Gongbo Jiang • *violin* Catherine Marwood • *viola* Mark Bailey • *cello*
