Aurelian Ensemble: NSQF Young Artists Summer Concerts 2026

About this event

The Aurelian Ensemble is a brand new Chamber Music Collective, founded out of a shared love for Franz Schubert’s monumental Octet in F Major – a work whose warmth, lyricism, and symphonic scale have inspired musicians and audiences for generations. Written in 1824 and modelled in part after Beethoven’s Septet, the Octet expands the possibilities of chamber music with sweeping melodies, rich textures, and extraordinary interplay between the eight performers. This concert is part of an NSQF Young Artists tour which celebrates Schubert’s Octet as the piece that has brought these eight dynamic young musicians – from a variety of backgrounds and all high achievers in their own right – together for their inaugural concerts.
