SUK Piano Trio (15’)
L BOULANGER D’un matin de printemps (4’)
GORDON Piano Quintet ‘Kintsugi’ (18’) Co-commission with Presteigne Festival
DVOŘÁK Piano Quintet No.2 (40’)
Lyrically expressive Czech-folk-inspired music opens and closes this concert of works for piano and strings, with Dvořák’s much-loved Piano Quintet No.2 providing a joyful conclusion. Michael Zev Gordon’s delicate and enchanting Piano Quintet ‘Kintsugi’ (a Music in the Round co-commission with Presteigne Festival), is named after the Japanese technique of repairing broken pottery with gold to make it stronger than the original, and follows Lili Boulanger’s ravishing piano trio, ‘On a Spring Morning’.
