Each evening concert will be preceded by a free pre-concert presentation, exploring aspects of the programme in gerater depth.
CONCERT 1
2 Piano Quartets - 10 September 7.30pm
Peter Sheppard Skaerved, Morgan Goff, Neil Heyde, Aaron Shorr
Pre Concert Event at 6.30pm: "Accompanied chamber music - who's accompanying who?"
Mozart was commissioned to compose three piano quartets in 1785. However, amatuers found the first of these too difficult to play. So the publishers, Hoffmeister, paid Mozart in advance, on condition that he not write any more works in this adventurous medium. Fortunately for us, he seeems to have forgotten his undertaking within a year! Mozart made the arrangements of Bach preludes and fugues for the very idealistic evenings of contrapuntal music organised by the Baron von Sweiten.
The Rollin' Stoned & David Sinclair Trio
The greatest rock'n'roll tribute band in the world just keeps rolling on. Now in their ninth year, the Stones clones are playing and looking more authentic than ever as they shine a light on the most magnificent repertoire in the history of rock performance. The detail is perfect in every respect - from the magnificently wasted, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones to the preening, gurning, glistening Sir Mick - while wall-to-wall hits from Jumping Jack Flash to She's A Rainbow are belted out with loving, obsessive attention to detail. Satisfaction guaranteed.
A songwriter and music journalist who fronts his own alternative rock/blues trio, David Sinclair looks like a taller version of Johnny Dowd. He sings and plays a mean Telecaster but - with apologies to Tom Waits - his main instrument is really vocabulary. Sinclair can tell you stories in songs that stick around like flypaper inside your head. And he rocks. Recently signed to the NovaTunes label in America, the David Sinclair Trio featuring George Andrew (bass/BVs/shades) and the mighty Drew Farmer (drums) has become a regular attraction on the London and South East live circuit.

Concert 3
2 Last Quintets - 14 September at 6pm
Peter Sheppard Skaerved, Philippa Mo, Morgan Goff, Pedro Mereiles, Ian Burdge
Pre-concert event at 5pm: "How many violas? The carpet-bagging string quartet."
The nascent industrial age, heralded and accelerated by revolution and war, co-existed with the mores and habits of the ancien regime, expressed by the galant style. Neither of these was more or less modern. Artists and composers shuttled back and forth from the impassioned, militaristic style of early romanticism, the late 'age of feeling', to the sureties of fetes galantes. Mozart, like many of his age, clearly needed both of these worlds.
So it is Mozart's two last quintets, which explore musical landscapes which are still revolutionary today; the D major, is essentially courtly, whilst the E flat major, is warlike, and heralding Beethoven's work ten years later.
This old
Victorian tale has been given a new lease of life as an up-tempo, colourful
children's musical, and it has its premiere in October at Wilton's Music Hall. The story tells of two
young friends, who are each granted a wish for their future. Henry wishes for a
piano, whilst Florence asks for a spotted cow. span
Florence finds financial success in her thriving dairy while
Henry delights audiences with his piano-playing.
In truth, art
and commerce need each other, and Henry and Florence realise that we need more than money
to be happy. With toe-tapping tunes, lots of fun, and sing-a-long songs, spanThe Spotted Cow
and the Pianoforte will delight young and old alike. All can
participate in the fun!
