Programme Note
Festival favourite Raphael Wallfisch brings his Trio back to Leamington for the first time since 2015 when they delighted our audience with all of Brahms’ wonderful piano trios. The Trio have performed, broadcast, and recorded widely throughout Europe, Canada, and Israel including concerts in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, France, and Spain.
Composed in his ‘Mediterranean Style’ – a blend of Mizrahi-Jewish, Bedouin, and Arabic folk music conjuring a local national colour – Paul Ben-Haim’s Variations on a Hebrew Melody open the concert. We then continue celebrations of Shostakovich in the 50th year after his death and hear our first work of Ravel’s in this Festival, celebrating 150 years since his birth.
