| Pittville Pump Room, Cheltenham, Cheltenham GL52 3JE, United Kingdom Saturday 13-Jul-13 11:00am Mozart & Beethoven for Piano & Winds The London Conchord Ensemble is a collective of the highest calibre soloists and principals of orchestras such as the BBC Symphony and Chamber Orchestra of Europe. Performances and recordings since their Wigmore Hall debut a decade ago have been widely praised for their precision, sophistication and spirit. Alongside the pair of classical Viennese works, their programme here features Barber’s wind quintet from the 1950s and Poulenc’s most substantial chamber work, a typically suave, melodic work finished just before the outbreak of World War Two.
Rumbustious and playful, Francis Poulenc is deemed a lesser figure among the greats of 20th-century music but it’s a mistake to underestimate him. His work is no mere froth; there’s a smoky, autumnal sadness to his harmonic writing, a lingering regret beneath the joie de vivre, particularly in the intimacy of his chamber music. The London Conchord Ensemble understand this completely, working their magic in the bittersweet sonatas…and romping through ensemble works large and small.

| Auditorium Grafenegg, Grafenegg, Austria Sunday 8-Sep-13 11:00am Buchbinder and Friends The fourth matinee, featuring Rudolf Buchbinder and members of the Vienna Philharmonic, presents two chamber music gems by Franz Schubert and Ludwig van Beethoven.
