The ensemble Endymion is 35 and the group are having birthday celebrations at King's Place. They are giving three concerts, on 6, 7 and 8 February 2014 with a typical mix of music. For their first concert they perform horn trios by Beethoven, Brahms and Ligeti, they follow this with a programme centred on Debussy's Sonata for flute, violin and harp with music for variations that combination of instruments by Ravel, Saint-Saens, Martinu and Beethoven. The final concert sees them performing Brahms's two Clarinet Sonatas, plus his Clarinet Trio.
Endymion was formed in 1979 from a group of outstanding National Youth Orchestra students. Unusually for chamber groups so well established, Endymion retains most of its original players.
