The London Sketch Club was founded in 1898 as a social club for artists working in the field of commercial graphic art. The club is at 7 Dilke Street, SW3 4JE in Chelsea, where it has been since the 1950's. They are now branching out into music and there is a concert series in the studio, with some talented young performers. The series opens on Thursday 25 September 2014, at 7.30pm with a recital from the Jacquin Trio, Jessie Grimes (clarinet), Kay Stephen (viola), and Charis Hanning (piano), in an intriguing programme of Schumann, Kurtag, Copland and Mozart, including Kurtag's Hommage a R. Schumann. Then on Thursday 9 October, baritone Dominic Sedgwick and Nigel Foster, piano, are performing songs by Joseph Marx, Ivor Gurney, John Ireland, RVW, Daniel Gillingwater and Richard Strauss. Finally, the Bernadel Quartet, William Melvin and Cassandra Hamilton (violin), Richard Waters (viola) and Abigail Hyde-Smith (cello) performs quartets by Haydn Shostakovich and Beethoven on 23 October.
Tickets are available from the box office of Cadogan Hall.
