Our performance on 7th November will immerse concert-goers in musical representations of space travel, portraying both real-life events and fictional journeys. Appropriately for the time of year, we also explore musical depictions of fire, and fire-associated creatures and technologies.

If you attended our concert in March, you might remember Nigel Clarke’s dramatic and exciting piece Samurai. We’re delighted to announce that we’ll be playing Gagarin, another of Nigel Clarke’s works, which describes the experiences of Yuri Gagarin, cosmonaut of the first manned spacecraft. The composer will be introducing the performance in person.

Programme to include:

Nigel Clarke: Gagarin
John Williams (arr): Star Wars Suite
George Frideric Handel (arr): Music for the Royal Fireworks
Philip Sparke: Year of the Dragon
Artie Shaw: Clarinet Concerto (soloist Graham Milgate)

… and a selection of big band jazz pieces to finish the concert!

Florestan Trio

Beethoven, Trio in G, Op. 1, no. 2
Hadyn, Trio in C, Hob. XV/27
Mendelssohn, Trio in D minor, Op. 46

Florestan is one of the world's leading piano trios. The group stands in the great European tradition of chamber music playing which aims to make the expressive purpose of every detail understood, like the words in a sentence or paragraph - to make the music 'speak'. This approach was epitomised by the violinist Sandor Végh, by whom all three players were taught. In 2000 the Trio was honoured to receive Britain's Royal Philharmonic Society Award for chamber music - the first time this has been given to a piano trio.

Berlin Philharmonic Piano Quartet

Mozart, Piano Quartet in G minor, K. 478

The Berlin Philharmonic Piano Quartet, among the few permanent ensembles in this formation, has existed as a chamber-music association of the Berliner Philharmoniker since 1985. Its comprehensive repertoire includes a number of significant compositions which are otherwise seldom heard in concert.
