Martin Harris Centre for Music and Drama, Quaytickets Fri, 7th May 2010 - Fri, 7th May 2010 From £12.00*Friday 19th February 2010 Quatuor Danel Evening Concert Schubert String Quartet in D, D94 Bruno Mantovani Piano Quintet ‘Blue Girl with Red Wagon’ Brahms String Quartet in C minor, Op. 51 No.1 with Richard Whalley (piano) Another delightful stroll in the company of early Schubert Quartet, followed by a chance to hear the University’s Lecturer in Composition, Richard Whalley in Mantovani’s Quintet, and the pride and passion of Brahms’s first quartet. Venue: The Cosmo Rodewald Concert Hall Time: 19.30 Friday 12th March 2010 Quatuor Danel Evening Concert Schubert Quartettsatz Brahms String Quartet in A minor, Op. 51 No. 2 Taneyev Piano Quintet in G with David Fanning (piano) Sergey Taneyev’s 1912 Piano Quintet is a monument of the Russian repertoire: in effect the piano-chamber masterpiece that neither his teacher Tchaikovsky nor his pupil Rachmaninov managed to write. It combines their emotionalism with the intellectual rigour of Brahms and ends with the most tintinnabulating conclusion in the entire repertoire. And as a foil, the turbulent centrepiece of Brahms’s quartet trilogy, with the stormiest of Schubert to set the scene. NB: this concert will be preceded at 18.00 by a live BBC ‘Discovering Music’ recording, in which Taneyev’s Piano Quintet will be analysed and discussed by Stephen Johnson with David Fanning and the Quatuor Danel Venue: The Cosmo Rodewald Concert Hall Time: 19.30 Friday 7th May 2010 Quatuor Danel Evening Concert Schubert String Quartet in G minor, D173 Henri Fourès String Quartet (world première) Dvorák Piano Quintet with David Fanning (piano) More effervescent early Schubert, together with the first performance of the Quartet by Henri Fourès. And the season concludes with an explosion of joie de vivre in the sunniest and most uplifting of all Piano Quintets by Dvořak. Venue: The Cosmo Rodewald Concert Hall Time: 19.30
