Programme Note

Talented young Instrumental Fellows selected by the Philharmonia Orchestra perform a selection of twentieth-century repertoire for flute, viola and harp, starting with Debussy’s impressionistic trio of 1915. Setting out to write for ‘diverse instruments’, Debussy’s Trio is the first major work in this genre, but many composers since have made effective use of the distinctive yet complementary timbres of these instruments, not least Sofia Gubaidalina, whose work evokes a shimmering, suspended place of stillness.
