Our 3rd visit to Abbot's Langley - in which we promised to play the Ligeti Sechs Bagatellen. These opened the concert and were surprisingly well received.

In the second half we played the Danzi Quintet in Bb major and an arrangement of Bizet's Jeux d'Enfants. Elgar's Salut d'Amour was our encore which marked the 150th anniversary of the composer's birth.
