RECITAL 1: SATURDAY 17TH AUGUST at 3.00 pm.

RECITAL 2: SUNDAY 18TH AUGUST at 6.00 PM. ArtBursts second Recital in the Church will be at 6pm on Sunday 18th August (Pre dinner concert). "Voyage with ArtBurst from the East to the West!" Let yourselves be transported by the interpretations of two talented musicians living in the south of France: Mariko Izumi (piano) and Michael Henderson (viola). They will take you from Moscow via the sonata in D minor by Glinka to Snape Maltings in the Aldeburgh area of Suffolk. There they will perform ‘Lachrymae’ (op. 48) composed by Benjamin Britten in 1950. The musical voyage will finish on a truly romantic note with the Sonata op. 120 N°1 by Johannes Brahms. |
Latest Review: “The pleasant atmosphere, which in our opinion is essential to such a duo, was immediately noticed thanks to a surprising musical complicity between the two performers. A perfect fusion of melodies and accompaniments.
Our favorite work is Britten's "Lachrymae" inspired by John Dowland: it's both a wonderful echo in the Elizabethan era and a modern take-off to other sounds exacerbated by all the gameplay techniques. the stringed instrument: pizzicato, sul tasto, arco, double strings ... The viola seemed to float in the air under the expert fingers of the artist (Michael Henderson) and was never crushed by the extremely present piano but with great subtlety and flexibility on the part of Mariko Izumi.”
N.B. FREE ENTRY with a retiring collection in support of local charities.
