As our new season of concerts gets underway, we're running a series of pre-concert talks at selected venues in order to give our audiences the opportunity to get any thoughts, ideas and burning questions off their chests face-to-face with some of the world's finest soloists and conductors....
Starting the sessions is superb violinist Alina Ibragimova who for our concerts in Cambridge and Norwich will be discussing why she specifically chose Bach and Schoenberg to frame her near-flawless rendition of Karl Amadeus Hartmann's little-known Concerto Funebre
The other works she will be talking about include a brand-new arrangement of JS Bach's Prelude and Fugue in A minor by composer Tansy Davies, JS Bach's Violin Concerto no. 1 in A minor, and Arnold Schoenberg's gorgeous Romantic work Transfigured Night
The pre-concert talks will be held at Cambridge's West Road Concert Hall on Mon 22 October at 7pm and Norwich Cathedral on Tue 23 October at 6.30pm
COMING UP.....
We will also be holding pre-concert talks for our forthcoming concert with Imogen Cooper in Norwich and Cambridge on Fri 7 December at 6.30 and Sat 8 December at 7pm, respectively.
The programme will feature Birtwistle's Bach Measures, Prokofiev's Classical Symphony and Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 in G, with our guest speaker superb conductor Nicholas Daniel.
