   4strings88keys is a charity run by volunteers who aim to promote   chamber music in Sheffield and Derbyshire

We organise weekends that consist of a concert, a day of masterclass style teaching and individual lessons followed by a day of  tutored ensemble playing. We also run an annual cello day

Our tutors are from the international circuit and offer the teaching skills they bring to their own pupils

Bernard Gregor-Smith of the Dante quartet (previously of the Lindsays) is our  lead musician and music advisor
