Cellist James Douglas has now confirmed his programme for next Thursday's 12.30 lunchtime concert.
James will be playing Britten's Cello Suite No 2, and the Second Suite
in D minor from Bach's Suites for Unaccompanied Cello. James is a
student of the Royal Academy of Music and an interesting musician whose
talents encompass several musical genres. You may like to take a look at
his biographical notes on this webpage.
Also next week, on
Tuesday evening in Stoke d'Abernon, Wednesday in St Andrews Church
Cobham, and Thursday in St Michael & All Angels, Bedford Park,
Chiswick, the Maiastra concert series continues
with performances of String Quartets by Mozart, Walton and Dvorak. Akiko
Ono, a tutor of the Yehudi Menuhin School, leads players from the Royal
College of Music and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Full
details of times, venues and programme will be found on this link.
Music on Thursdays and Maiastra concerts are given free of admission, with a retiring collection to help cover costs.
As a PS to the note on the Thursday lunchtime concerts (this week James Douglas, Cellist), the concerts have been sponsored by locally owned restaurant Vecchia Trattoria, who attend the concerts and afterwards offer freshly made sandwiches and cakes. You can have your lunch for £2.50! (consisting of a half sandwich, piece of cake and a drink). More and more people are choosing to join us for a wonderful concert, followed by an inexpensive and light lunch together with lots of lovely people to chat to.
