Concerts from this organiser

Today

  • Corbridge Chamber Music Festival: YouTube

    This year's Corbridge Chamber Music Festival will be taking place online, with a series of concerts being streamed on the festival's YouTube channel from 24th-26th July.

    The Gould Piano Trio and Robert Plane, Artistic Directors of the festival, will be joined by a select group of talented performers to present this virtual incarnation of the annual summer festival.

    The content will include several concerts recorded specially for the festival at the homes of the performers, as well as some archive footage from recent pre-lockdown live events. The music presented will range from Bach to Beethoven to Boulez, and includes several solo performances as well as chamber ensembles.

    There will be no charge to watch the videos online, but donations are encouraged where possible, to help secure the future of the festival during this challenging time.

    Robert Plane (clarinet)

    Our festival finale opens with one of Boccherini’s many string quintets (there are over a hundred!), a particularly vocal example which draws upon influences as diverse as Italian Opera and Spanish Fandango. We then draw together some of the threads of the 2024 Corbridge Festival, with Pierrot’s escapades graphically depicted by Thea Musgrave, and a final reminder of JP Joffre’s astonishing bandoneon playing in that classic of ‘Nuevo Tango’, Piazzolla’s ‘Libertango’. ‘I can’t tell you how moved I am by it, and powerfully gripped’ wrote Clara Schumann of Brahms’ Piano Quintet Op.34. Widely regarded as the jewel in the crown of Brahms' chamber works, what better way to bring the 2024 Corbridge Chamber Music Festival to a rousing end?
