Programme Note

The opening work, John Ireland's 'Phantasy Trio', was written for the William Walter Cobbett competitions that aimed to revive the old 16th-century Elizabethan "Fancy" tradition. Music flows as one continuous, evolving story in this single-movement structure in order to construct a more atmospheric musical experience.

Works that follow include passionate Cello Sonatas and Armstrong Gibbs' works, such as The Yorkshire Dales, which carry the rhapsodic flow of this tradition. The sweeping masterpiece of Moeran’s ‘Piano Trio’ will close this fabulous concert, bringing the audience into the wild energy and magical embrace of the English moors.
