SUMMARY:Trish Clowes and Ross Stanley
DESCRIPTION:Artists: Trish Clowes (saxophone) & Ross Stanley (piano)Concert Sponsor: Rathbones Investment Management \nProgramme Includes\n\nTrish Clowes – Original Compositions\nHerbert Howells – Gloucester Service\nLili Boulanger – Pie Jesu\nAntonio Carlos Jobim – Brazilian Miniatures\nRichard Rodgers & Lorenz Hart – Spring is Here\n\nAbout the Concert\nTwo of Britain’s most celebrated musicians unite for an extraordinary afternoon of musical exploration that promises to blur the boundaries between jazz\, classical\, and folk traditions. Saxophonist Trish Clowes\, Associate Artist at Wigmore Hall\, and pianist Ross Stanley\, twice British Jazz Award winner\, have spent years crafting their distinctive sound world—one that has earned standing ovations from Wigmore Hall to the Royal Festival Hall and garnered widespread critical acclaim for their 2024 album Journey to Where. \nThe programme beautifully illustrates the duo’s remarkable versatility\, moving seamlessly from Clowes’s own contemplative compositions to the sacred beauty of Herbert Howells’s Gloucester Service—a work particularly close to Stanley’s heart from his days as an organ scholar at Marlborough College. The inclusion of Lili Boulanger’s ethereal Pie Jesu alongside Antonio Carlos Jobim’s sophisticated Brazilian miniatures demonstrates their fearless approach to repertoire\, whilst Rogers and Hart’s Spring is Here showcases their gift for reimagining beloved standards. This eclectic selection reflects what critics have praised as their “absorbing and seamless eclecticism”—music that reveals new layers with each encounter. \nAbout the Artists\nClowes brings her reputation as “one of the most agile and original jugglers of improv and adventurous composition” to bear alongside Stanley’s extraordinary musical intelligence\, described by The Irish Times as echoing “the quiet virtuosity of John Taylor\, the harmonic sophistication of Bill Evans and the lyrical fluency of Wynton Kelly.” Together\, they create what Jamie Cullum has called “vital music full of swing\, emotion and atmosphere.” \nThis promises to be an unmissable afternoon where technical mastery meets profound musical understanding—a rare opportunity to witness two artists at the pinnacle of their craft exploring the infinite possibilities that emerge when boundaries dissolve and pure musical communication takes centre stage.

SUMMARY:Kosmos: A Musical Journey Beyond Boundaries
DESCRIPTION:Artists: Harriet Mackenzie (violin)\, Meg Hamilton (viola)\, Miloš Milivojević (accordion) \nConcert Sponsor: Sue and Jeff Collman\n \nProgramme Includes\nTo be announced from the stage(Expect gypsy\, Jewish\, Greek\, Scottish\, Baroque\, Tango influences) \nAbout the Concert\nWhen Richard Morrison of The Times describes performers as having “telepathic rapport\, dazzling virtuosity\, serious scholarship\, intellectual curiosity and impeccable musicianship\,” one takes notice. Kosmos Ensemble represents something genuinely revolutionary in chamber music – a trio that seamlessly removes the artificial barriers between classical and world traditions\, creating an entirely new musical language that speaks to both the intellect and the soul. \nA Genre-Defying Performance\nThe programme\, to be announced from the stage\, promises an exhilarating voyage across continents and centuries. Expect to encounter the passionate fire of gypsy traditions alongside the melancholic beauty of Scottish airs\, the intricate ornamentations of Jewish folk song\, and the sultry rhythms of Argentine tango. Yet this is far from a mere world music medley. Kosmos weaves these diverse threads through the lens of their impeccable classical training\, creating arrangements where Corelli’s baroque elegance might suddenly bloom into Piazzolla’s sultry sophistication\, or where a traditional Greek melody transforms through improvisation worthy of the finest jazz traditions. \nAbout Kosmos\nEach member brings exceptional credentials: Harriet Mackenzie\, whose concerto recordings with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra have earned Gramophone’s praise for “faultless technique and unfailing insight”; Meg Hamilton\, whose unique mastery of world viola techniques creates sounds both “beautiful and truly evocative”; and Miloš Milivojević\, the Serbian accordion virtuoso whose performances The Times describes as “a hurricane of imaginative invention.” Together\, they have garnered recognition from Making Music as ‘Selected Artists’ twice over\, performing at venues from the Royal Albert Hall to European festivals. \nThis promises to be an evening where musical boundaries simply cease to exist – where the rigour of classical training meets the spontaneity of improvisation\, creating something both intellectually satisfying and irresistibly moving.

SUMMARY:John Paul Ekins: An Evening of Musical Intimacy
DESCRIPTION:Artists: John Paul Ekins\, PianoConcert Sponsor: Austins Department Store \nProgramme Includes\n\nMozart: Sonata No. 18 in D major\, K. 576\nBrahms: Four Pieces for Piano\, Op. 119\nSchubert: Sonata in B flat major\, D. 960\n\nA Journey Through Piano Mastery\nJoin us for a deeply personal musical journey as accomplished pianist John Paul Ekins presents three masterworks that showcase the profound emotional range of the piano repertoire. John Paul’s programme traces an arc from Mozart’s crystalline elegance through Brahms’s autumnal reflections to Schubert’s monumental final statement—a concert that promises both intellectual satisfaction and genuine emotional resonance. \nAbout the Concert\nThe evening opens with Mozart’s Sonata No. 18 in D major\, K 576\, a work of sublime architectural perfection that demonstrates the composer’s ability to find infinite expression within classical restraint. Brahms’s Four Pieces for Piano\, Op. 119\, follow—intimate late works that reveal the composer’s most private thoughts\, combining technical sophistication with profound emotional depth. The programme culminates with Schubert’s towering Sonata in B flat major\, D 960\, completed just months before the composer’s death and representing one of the piano literature’s most moving testaments to human experience. \nAbout the Artist\nJohn Paul Ekins brings exceptional credentials to this demanding repertoire. A Royal College of Music and Guildhall School graduate who has captured nineteen international competition prizes\, his performances at venues including Wigmore Hall and the Royal Albert Hall have established him as a pianist of rare communicative power. His approach transcends mere technical excellence—audiences consistently praise his ability to forge genuine emotional connections whilst maintaining the highest artistic standards. \nThis promises to be an evening where technical mastery serves profound musical storytelling. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience three cornerstones of the piano repertoire interpreted by an artist who understands that great music speaks directly to the human heart.
