SUMMARY:Florian Störtz
DESCRIPTION:Florian Störtz – one of the most exciting young baritones of his generation – and Mark Rogers met during their student days at the Royal Academy of Music in London and found congenial musical partners in each other from the get-go. Their specialty is the close-knitted musicianship and refreshing interpretative drive that have earned them recognition in the world of song. Together\, they have won the 2023 Helmut Deutsch Song Competition with an electric performance of songs by Schubert\, Wolf and Mahler. Shortly afterwards\, they won the Prix de mélodie at the 2023 Nadia et Lili Boulanger International Song Competition in Paris. \nTheir programme today centres around Wagner’s Wesendonck Lieder\, one of the pinnacles of Romantic song writing. Alongside this\, we hear songs by Franz Liszt\, Johanna Müller-Hermann and Richard Strauss\, all composers with strong connections to Wagner. \nPerformers\nFlorian Störtz bass-baritone\nMark Rogers piano \nProgramme \nStrauss Im Sonnenschein Op. 87 No. 4\nLiszt S’il est un charmont gazon\, S. 284\nLiszt Der du von dem Himmel bist (first version) S. 279/1\nLiszt Oh quand je dors S.282\nMüller-Hermann Wie eine Vollmondnacht Op. 20 No. 4\n\nWagner Wesendonck Lieder\n\nMüller-Hermann Wandle wie im Traum\nMüller-Hermann Der letzte Abend\nStrauss Befreit no. 4 op. 39\n\nLiszt Der du von dem Himmel bist (third version) S.279/3\nSponsored by:\nThe Headley Trust \n\n

SUMMARY:The Highclere Concert
DESCRIPTION:This event is currently RETURNS ONLY\, please complete this form to be added to the waiting list. \nSince forming their duo in 2016\, saxophonist Huw Wiggin and harpist Oliver Wass have continued to develop and refine their programmes of music for this unusual pairing of instruments. Huw and Oliver have developed a reputation as warm communicators who draw audiences into their intimate and engaging performances. \n“A seemingly unlikely combination that works real magic” is how composer Robert Hugill reviewed a CD performance of saxophonist Huw Wiggin and harpist Oliver Wass. From Bach to Debussy to more modern composers this duo plays with a delicacy and verve that will have listeners hearing familiar music in a new way. \nTonight’s programme will include a range of different works from Bach\, Couperin and Purcell through to Einaudi and Bernstein\, all carefully curated and arranged for this beguiling pairing of instruments. \nPerformers\nHuw Wiggin saxophone\nOliver Wass harp \nProgramme \nBéla Kovács – arr. Wass/Wiggin Sholem – Alekhem\, rov Feidman!\nFrançois Couperin Le Rossignol en amour\nCharlotte Harding Euphotic\nJ.S.
