Part of the Conway Hall Sunday Concerts, Summer 2023 Cycle

Add to my Calendar 21-05-2023 18:30 21-05-2023 20:30 36 Greenwich Trio & Boris Bizjak The Greenwich Trio are no strangers to the Conway Hall and their accomplished, compelling performances are always well received. For their return to our series, they are joined by flautist Boris Bizjak, praised by Gramophone for his "freshness and originality". Their selection of repertoire could not be more varied: from Hummel's imaginative arrangement of Beethoven's early Septet to a new work, written by Marcus Barcham Stevens for tonight's musicians. Schubert's 'Trockne Blumen' Variations offer numerous opportunities for impressive virtuosity from flautist and pianist, while Ravel's 'Mother Goose Suite' finishes the evening, in an arrangement which captures the beauty and intimacy of the original piano duet, with the colour and magic of the orchestral version."Never have I heard piano and stringed instruments meld together so seamlessly" Bachtrack 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.
