2016 Hay Festival - Cremona Quartet and Morgan Szymanski

Guitarist Morgan Szymanski joins the Cremona Quartet to perform Haydn, Sor and Boccherini, live at the 2016 Hay Festival.

Clemency Burton-Hill presents a concert of music with a Spanish flavour, performed by the guitarist Morgan Szymanski and the Cremona Quartet, broadcast live from St Mary's Church, Hay-on-Wye, during the 2016 Hay Festival. As part of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Music Day we'll be hearing about the Hay Festival Guitar Jam taking place earlier in the day, when amateur guitarists come together with Morgan Szymanski to create a brand new piece of music. Also included in the concert is one of Haydn's last string quartets, the Variations on a Theme of Mozart by Fernando Sor, and the Guitar Quintet No 4 by Boccherini, complete with castanets.
