Schubert Trout Quintet
Schubert’s popular and lyrical Trout Quintet forms the centerpiece of this lunchtime programme. Written for a group of friends and never intended to be performed publicly the Trout takes its name from its fourth movement which is a set of variations on Schubert's earlier Lied “Die Forelle" (The Trout). This performance also features a new work from Simon Holt, commissioned by Britten Sinfonia and Wigmore Hall.
“The way he deploys instrumental timbres and creates mixes of sound conjures up, with his customary imagination, a compact score that is at once multi-faceted, ear-catching and clearly focused.” Geoffrey Norris, The Daily Telegraph on Simon Holt
In Conversation Simon Holt introduces his new work.
