Announcing the concert, Beatrice Philips, festival founder and member of the Eusebius Quartet, said: “Following last year’s sell-out event, we have invited back the London-based Eusebius Quartet, along with Festival favourite and world-renowned clarinetist Matthew Hunt.

“This should be wonderful occasion for music-lovers 
in Lewes.”
