SUMMARY:Tamsin Waley-Cohen & Cordelia Williams
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nTwo star soloists come together in an exciting\, electric and intensely poetic new duo partnership: we are delighted to welcome pianist Cordelia Williams and violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen to the Festival. \nThis is a vibrant and dramatic meeting of musical spirits\, a true meeting of equals and a musical rapport that will see them record Bach’s complete duo sonatas in 2024. Their programme celebrates Bach\, with a pairing of two of his duo sonatas which are searingly beautiful\, playful and exhilarating. Schubert’s timeless Fantasie in C is offset by James Macmillan’s miniature After the Tryst\, fuelled by the composer’s love of the Scottish folk ballad tradition. \nSponsored by\nMartelize\nMiss W Lawrence Charitable Settlement \nPiano hire sponsored by Horsey Lightly\n\n \nProgramme\nBach Sonata for violin and keyboard No. 4\nJames Macmillan After the Tryst\nBach Sonata for violin and keyboard No. 6\nSchubert Fantasie in C \nPerformers\nTamsin Waley-Cohen violin\nCordelia Williams piano \n\n\n\n\nTickets\n£25\n(includes £1.25 Corn Exchange booking fee per ticket) \n  \n
