Mozart’s 29th Symphony

St. Matthew's Lutheran Church

Palestrina is the most consummate of renaissance composers; from his time to ours he has come to represent an entire epoch of music, and to influence some of the greatest names from later centuries – among them Handel and Beethoven. Tonight, the Tallis Scholars showcase an outstanding mass setting, including one or two of his greatest motets.

They also offer a fascinating and profound comparison with the music of Pärt, one of the most performed living composers in the world. Pärt is well known for his own sublime choral settings, and although he doesn’t write polyphony like Palestrina exemplified, the atmosphere he can create in his music sits well alongside that of the renaissance master.

The partnership of Russian-born Alina Ibragimova and our Patron Steven Osborne has been hailed as one of the most exciting on the concert stage today. Their 2014 recording of Prokofiev’s violin sonatas brought five-star superlatives from the critics. Franck’s violin sonata is one of the most romantic and satisfying of all works for violin and piano.

Fretwork are the world’s leading consort of viols. For almost 40 years they have been exploring the core repertory of great English consort music, from Taverner to Purcell, and making classic recordings against which others are judged. They are also pioneers of contemporary music for viols, having commissioned over 40 pieces from composers as varied as Michael Nyman, Elvis Costello, Sir John Tavener and Nico Muhly. Tonight, by way of an introduction to this remarkable consort who haven’t played at St George’s for 15 years, they present a glorious mix of old and somewhat less old, playing music by Byrd, Debussy, Purcell, Nyman, Bach and, of course, Dave Brubeck (well, actually, Dave Brubeck’s saxophonist Paul Desmond).
