Music at Tresanton 2 0 0 9
Four years ago seven musicians gathered in the small village of St Mawes, on the tip of the Roseland peninsula, to mark Schumann's 150th anniversary by playing through all of his piano chamber music. Since then Music at Tresanton has been offering annual music programmes and attracting audiences from the Roseland peninsula as well as from further afield in Cornwall and the UK.
The 2009 winter festival, Waldstein Ensemble and Friends, will take place between the 20-22 of November, and will offer four concert programmes of music from Vienna and Budapest. The Waldstein Ensemble will be performing the three Brahms Piano Quartets, and they will be joined by horn player David Fernandez Alonso, violinist Katharine Gowers, and cellist Ditta Rohmann for a varied programme including trios and sonatas by Beethoven. music by Kurtág and Ligeti, and finishing with Brahms's Piano Quintet.
