THE DARK HORSE COMETH

First UK platform in decades

for composer/conductor Michael Rosenzweig

"Rosenzweig appeared to be on the brink of greatness, but he

dropped out of sight circa 1986 despite seven awards including the
DAAD Artists Fellowship in Berlin and ringing endorsements from such
luminaries as Chou Wen-chung, Yonty Solomon and Emanuel Hurwitz..
His appearance at The Warehouse with Simon Hewitt Jones' Fifth
Quadrant offers Londoners a rare chance to see this enigmatic figure
and hear some of his unheard music." Rian Malan

Simon Hewitt Jones. THE FIFTH QUADRANT

5Q has performed at many of the UK's leading festivals and concert series They have recorded
for Signum and for the BBC, worked and recorded with the Medici Quartet and the late

In praise of MICHAEL ROSENZWEIG:

CHARLES MACKERRAS: You are obviously a man of huge talent.
OLIVER KNUSSEN: A talent of a major order
LUKAS FOSS,: I have just listened to your beautiful Elegy again. Bravo!
EMANUEL HURWITZ, Michael Rosenzweig is a fine musician both as
composer and conductor. I am surprised that such valid music is not getting
any performances.
DAVID ALBERMAN, Michael's music is blazingly honest, strongly crafted music
with a powerful intellectual rigour: the world is the richer for having it!
