T398537547pieces by Bridge and Walton in March. The works of Frank Bridge were championed by his more famous pupil, Benjamin Britten, and the quartet will play one of his favourite pieces - Bridge's Phantasy Quartet . As a beautiful counterpoint, the musicians then move on to Walton's Piano Quartet - heavily influenced by Ravel, this was first written when the composer was only 16, and subsequently revised throughout his life. No need to book, just come along and enjoy this sublime morning of music. | |

T115600716The works of Frank Bridge were championed especially by his more famous pupil, Benjamin Britten, who loved this ‘Phantasy' quartet, and played it frequently. William Walton was a student at Oxford when he wrote his brilliant piano quartet. It is a precocious work that shows Walton's early love for the music of Herbert Howells and Ravel.Performer Jennifer Curiel (violin). Performer Pasha Willia (viola). Performer Sally Flann (cello).

T1050965434Manuel de Falla's Spanish Folksongs (1914) proved so popular that they were arranged for a number of different instruments. In this version, the violin imitates the voice of the original and also the style and techniques of a Spanish guitar. Folksong, especially Slavonic-style melody, influenced Dvorak's piano quartet. Dvorak wrote it at a time when composing came easily to him - the result is a fluent and sunny work. | |
