Derbyshire gig for Methera`

Methera is a unique ensemble: a string quartet with roots firmly planted in the musical traditions of England, Sweden and beyond. Their national tours, BBC Radio 3 broadcasts and collaborations have helped them establish a reputation as a scintillating live act.

Ten years on from their first public appearance, they are as captivating and innovative as ever and celebrate with a national tour and the launch of their third album Vortex.

Methera is made up of Lucy Deakin (cello), John Dipper and Emma Reid (fiddles) and Miranda Rutter (viola), who combine a deep knowledge of traditional music with a wide range of other influences and expertise and a deep sense of musical interaction.

Newly composed pieces sit alongside timeless traditional material; their music is both sophisticated and earthy, groundbreaking and familiar, enchanting and thrilling - chamber folk at its best.

The show starts at 7.30pm. Tickets are £10 in advance. Telephone on 01433 631490 or go to www.wegottickets.com/event/375294
