About Pollok House Arts Society
PHAS holds five /six Sunday at 5. 30pm chamber music concerts each year in the Music Room of House for an Art Lover. We invite the very best chamber musicians to perform. Sadly our Sixtieth Season 2019 /20 will be our last.
Pollok House Arts Society Description
Pollok House Arts Society was founded in 1959 by Sir John Maxwell Macdonald. His vision was to provide chamber music and a convivial supper for a group of music lovers in the elegant and intimate space of Pollok House. The programmes presented include a wide variety of the very best chamber musicians: soloists and ensembles, singers and instrumentalists. PHAS has been host to John Ogdon, Dame Kiri te Kanawa, Beaux Arts Trio, Alfred Brendel, Teresa Berganza, Amati String Quartet, Pascal Rogé, Margaret Price, Chilingirian String Quartet, Cécile Ousset, Lucia Popp, Medici Quartet, Stephen Hough, Benjamin Luxon, Natalie Clein, Steven Osborne, Christopher Maltman, Danish Ensemble, Jane Irwin, the Fejes Quartet and many more. . . . Now about to enter its 57th season, it continues to present supremely talented and accomplished musicians in the most wonderful setting and atmosphere.

Violinist Savitri Grier and pianist Richard Uttley gave us a wonderful concert yesterday in House for an Art Lover, courtesy of the Tunnell Trust. Their programme of Beethoven and Enescu was simply stunning, and showed off their incredible skill and talent. Photo taken before the concert, with the stylish HAL piano. For the concert itself a piano was hired from Martin Smith of Peter Smith Pianos.
