Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra: Chamber Music at Merton

Part of the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra 2021/22

Add to my Calendar 09-01-2022 15:00 09-01-2022 17:00 36 Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra: Chamber Music at Merton Oxford Philharmonic Concertmaster Natalia Lomeiko and Solo Cello Mats Lidström join pianist Katya Apekisheva for chamber music from England, France and Belgium. John Ireland’s 1917 Piano Trio No. 2 is a work of haunting beauty in which the composer confessed to ‘clinging to the beauty that remained on earth amidst the carnage.’ The war was a memory for Gabriel Fauré, whose 1923 Piano Trio in D minor is a melodic journey from solemnity to joie de vivre. There is no shortage of passion and intensity in César Franck’s only Violin Sonata, a wedding present for the great Belgian virtuoso Eugene Ysaÿe buoyed by the prospect of nascent love.  Supported by Elizabeth & David Ure and Celia & Andrew Curran TS Eliot Theatre, Oxford DD/MM/YYYY
