The Sacconi Quartet 2021/22 artist in residence Kate Beaugié curated the event ‘Beethoven on the Beach’ which featured the Sacconi Quartet playing Beethoven’s String Quartet in C# Minor Op.131 on Folkestone’s Sunny Sands beach, October 2021.

Kate invited a selection of filmmakers, photographers, poets and designers to respond to the original event.

BEETHOVEN ON THE BEACH REVISITED was a light & sound installation curated at The Grand in Folkestone in May 2022, and featured the results of these documentations.
