10TH CORBRIDGE CHAMBER MUSIC FESTIVAL
1st -
3rd AUGUST
2008
The
Gould Piano
Trio and
Robert
Plane are
delighted
to present
this programme
for the
10th Corbridge
Chamber
Music Festival.
Whether
a festival
regular
or a first
time visitor,
we hope
to tempt
you to
this special
anniversary
festival
with stunning
repertoire
and inspiring
guest musicians.
We are
featuring
masterworks
of Schubert
with the
octet,
string quintet
and a recital
of songs
by the
fabulous
tenor,
Charles
Daniels.
To mark
the 10th
anniversary
of the
festival,
a new work
has been
commissioned
from the
exciting
young composer,
Benjamin
Wallfisch.
Don’t
miss the
late-night
concert
with Messiaen’s
powerful “Quatuor
pour
la fin
du Temps”!
We hope
you
can join
us for
an enriching
weekend
in this
beautiful
Northumberland
town.
Since
winning
first prize
at both
the Premio
Vittorio
Gui in
Florence
and the
inaugural
Melbourne
Chamber
Music
Competition,
and being
promoted
as British ‘Rising
Stars’,
the Gould
Piano Trio has emerged
as one of
the finest
of its kind
performing
today. The
Independent described
its members
as ‘master
musicians’,
and their
widely diverse
repertoire
and ever-expanding
discography
display a
strong stylistic
conviction,
appreciated
by audiences
and critics
alike.
Robert
Plane’s
charismatic
and dynamic
performances
as soloist
and chamber
musician
in concert
and on
disc have
brought
wide critical
acclaim.
He is
currently
principal
clarinet
of the
BBC National
Orchestra
of Wales.
