UROBOROS ENSEMBLE Some
comments from the
press
Uroboros
Ensemble...took the music to its farthest extremes of expressive contrast.’
(The
Guardian) ‘The
group...includes a kaleidoscope of talent...coolly professional...enthused...the
playing was never rough or poor.’ (Independent) [The
music]’...was thrillingly realised...by Uroboros Ensemble.’ (Sunday
Times) ‘Talented
instrumentalists who take new music seriously.’ (The
Times) ‘One
of the highlights...an appearance by Uroboros, an enterprising ensemble...
stimulating and...consistently rewarding.’ (Musical
Times) ‘A
programming policy which is both imaginative and intelligent...Many contemporary
based concerts leave one with a sense of dissatisfaction...this one did quite
the opposite.’ (Tempo) ‘Varied
and Enterprising.
As for creativity - here Uroboros’s work seems to me to be quite unique
in this country.’ (Classical
Music) ‘Uroboros
Ensemble...went on in successive strides to scale magnificent heights...
successfully captivated the audience.
When it is generally held that modern music no longer communicates with
its modern audience, Uroboros have demonstrated that the opposite is the
case.’ (Venue) ‘A
marvellous range of dynamics and sensitivity in a moving performance...Uroboros
is an exciting group, with an infectious commitment and passion.’ (Bristol
Evening Post) ‘Played
to perfection...the Ensemble consists of instrumentalists of considerable
calibre and reputation.’ (Liverpool
Daily Post) '...this evening was a gesture of resistance to a slowly stagnating concert scene' (New Notes) |
