Old Lammermuir hands will recall the memorably dynamic and vibrant performances given by the Navarra String Quartet in our earliest festivals.

It’s great to have them back for a mini-residency, starting in an attractive new Lammermuir venue with this marvellous programme that culminates in one of the darkest and deepest of Beethoven’s late quartets.

"A warmly-rounded and very expressive sound, perfectly suited to Haydn: on this showing, they are already in the first rank of his music's exponents."

Gladsmuir Parish Church, Gladsmuir

Gladsmuir Parish Church is a Romanesque cruciform church dating from 1839 and designed by William Burn. A replacement was built after a fire in 1886 by John Farquarson of Haddington with later improvements made in 1929.

The older ruined church can still be seen and explored behind the new church. Gladsmuir's principal "claim to fame" relates to its role as the site of the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745.
