The Tier3 Piano Trio take us on a journey from Dvořák’s Bohemia to Henselt’s romantic Germany in this melody-filled lunchtime concert at St Giles Cripplegate.
The programme begins with Henselt’s passionate Piano Trio in A minor. Born in Bavaria, Henselt was strongly influenced by Schumann and German romanticism in general. This particular work, with its contrasts of turbulent moments and more tender, lyrical melodies, is dedicated to Franz Liszt.
Dvořák's celebrated 'Dumky' piano trio follows, one of his most beloved chamber works full of Slavic folk melody. Celebrated for its distinctly Bohemian sound, it was written just before the composer's move to America.
Summer Music in City Churches was founded in 2018, presenting beautiful music to engage, divert and inspire, in ancient and architecturally stunning churches in London's Square Mile. Standing cheek by jowl with City offices, these churches are glorious settings in which to listen and reflect: oases of history, beauty and peace amidst the 24-7 hurly-burly of City life.
