About this event
A kaleidoscope of chamber music: sparkling winds, playful modern voices and exquisite classics from Françaix to Mozart.
Praised as a child by Ravel, Françaix became one of the most prolific composers of the twentieth century. His aim was ‘to give pleasure… to be jolly most of the time - even comical.’ His Dixtuor is a sparkling showpiece for ten instruments. American composer Valerie Coleman often pays homage to earlier music, in this case the virtuosic Tzigane by Ravel, which Coleman – an accomplished flautist – uses as a starting point for coruscating woodwind writing that echoes Françaix’s. Australian composer Alex Turley harnesses similar joie-de-vivre in Syntax Error, a work that makes play with the occasional breakdowns in communication between composer and players.
Ravel’s colleague Debussy wrote his exquisitely poised Cello Sonata during World War I as part of a projected series of chamber works to secretly honour the youth of France mown down in war. Restrained, yet deeply moving, it pairs perfectly with Mozart’s Piano Quartet, where seriousness, contrapuntal elegance and popular manners join to create an unforgettable piece.
