Description
Every season has a first night, and this one belongs to chamber music. The evening moves between the familiar and the newly imagined: works drawn from the heart of the repertoire alongside music written for this moment.
Strings have carried human feeling across four centuries of music-making, from the courts of Baroque Europe to the concert halls of today, and few partnerships understand that continuum as instinctively as violinist Rabia Brooke and cellist Haddon Kay.
What they bring to each piece is the quality that defines the playing on this stage: the sense that the music is being discovered, not simply delivered. Colleagues join them for an evening that sets the tone for everything that follows.
