Event details

A contemporary ensemble

Gemini returns once again, presenting a programme of recent solos, duos and trios for clarinet/bass, violin/viola and piano. Kurtag’s trio Hommage à R. Schumann ‘abounds with subtle allusions to various works, and with almost dream-like evocations of Schumann’s style’; Guy’s duo Magical Mobiles was inspired by Alexander Calder mobiles; Harvey’s Trio requires the pianist to accompany in a surprising manner and works by exciting young composers Wang and Grime complete a colourful and varied programme.

“Absolutely superb.” BBC Music Magazine
