Programme Note
5.30pm Pre-concert talk
Join members of the Primrose Piano Quartet as they introduce Schoenberg's String Trio, with musical illustrations.
6.30pm Primrose Piano Quartet & Will Duerden
2018 BBC Young Musician of the Year finalist Will Duerden joins the Primrose Piano Quartet in a colourful programme, beginning with Mahler's foreboding early quartet, his only chamber work, which was not published until almost 60 years after his death. The strings then take centre stage for Schoenberg's trio, before we return to the full complement of musicians for two light-hearted works to complete a most varied programme.
“Inspired music played with complete control, imagination and deep insight, well judged balance and ensemble - a truly satisfying performance.” The Times
About the Sunday Concerts
Founded in the 1880s, our chamber music concert series is the longest-running of its kind in Europe. Conway Hall was purpose-built in 1929 to host concerts and lectures, and they have continued here until the present day. The ethos of “affordable classical music for all” still remains.
