Peasmarsh Chamber Music Festival: Festival Opening

Kristian Bezuidenhout, Jonian Ilias Kadesha, Lilli Maijala, Richard Lester, Anthony Marwood, Vashti  Hunter, Derek Gripper, Bartholomew LaFollette, Gilles Vonsattel

Join festival directors Richard and Anthony and their internationally acclaimed guest artists, on a whistle-stop tour of Europe in the 1800s. Cherubini’s rarely performed Classical masterpiece contrasts beautifully with Fauré’s unerringly elegant Romantic piano quartet. The concert opens with Schubert’s Adagio and Rondo Concertante of 1816, a pianistic tour de force and his first composition for piano and string ensemble.

To express that which is within you with sincerity….would seem to be the ultimate goal of art – Gabriel Fauré.
