Inside the String Quartet

We’re all remarkably good at hiding how classical music is made, with most rehearsals off limits from public eyes and ears. Recently the RPS has created opportunities to join several celebrated singers and pianists as they rehearse. Now, for the first time, we invite you to see how a string quartet works together in shaping music for the stage.
