Elvis Costello has covered a lot of ground since emerging as the most gifted of the angry young singer-songwriters of the late Seventies. An inveterate plunderer of musical genres, his bold, ambitious classical pop collaborations with the virtuoso Brodsky Quartet have been indefinably, fascinatingly urgent. Matching Elvis Costello's savage wit and impassioned lyrical delivery with the Brodsky Quartet's rich, emotive strings, this extraordinary concert includes music from their 15 years of working together, including tracks from 'The Juliet Letters' and 'Moodswings', along with new arrangements and new material. The eloquent and graceful intertwining of voice and strings will work magic in the sublime acoustic of St George's. 'Pointed lyrics, sophisticated melodies, sharp and emotional singing, [Costello] is a master.' ROLLING STONE 'The Brodsky Quartet are the team for the new century.' GRAMOPHONE
