The programme is a masterful blend of known and unknown works; of established and growing reputations. Beethoven’s magisterial E flat Trio, felt by many to be his finest work in the genre, is the cornerstone of the programme, following up two rare English gems – trios by John Ireland and Thomas Dunhill. We’re extremely excited to hear Dunhill’s so rarely performed work, a passionate yet pastoral treat, and it gives us all a chance to properly mark the 50th anniversary of John Ireland’s death.
