    Back by popular demand! The wind players of Ensemble 360 will perform a selection of music to accompany the rising sun, alongside the dawn chorus of singing birds. Featuring the blues-inflected Summer Music by Samuel Barber, the technical fireworks of Messiaen’s interstellar horn-calls (recorded above the Hope Valley by Naomi Atherton for our online festival in 2020), and music for wind inspired by nature, this promises to be an atmospheric morning of music in a unique setting.

  • Sheffield Chamber Music Festival: Sheffield

    St. Mark’s Church, Sheffield Broomfield Road, Sheffield, England

    An afternoon of glorious choral music.

    Ella Taylor, Anna Huntley, Darius Battiwalla, Ensemble 360, Louise Thomson, Abbeydale Singers & Lucy Joy Morris

    The Abbeydale Singers perform Cantique de Jean Racine, one of Gabriel Fauré’s most popular works, loved for its beautifully restrained nature and gorgeous harmonies. They are joined by Ensemble 360 for Fauré’s Mass, rarely performed in its entirety, composed in collaboration with his lifelong friend, André Messager, in honour of fishermen from the tiny Normandy village of Villerville.

    Organist Darius Battiwalla plays César Franck’s mesmerising Prelude, Fugue and Variation before singers Anna Huntley and Ella Taylor, rising stars of the opera and concert stage, join Ensemble 360, Louise Thomson and Abbeydale Singers for the shimmering sounds of the Queen’s Vision by the Irish-French composer Augusta Holmès.

    Gabriel Fauré/Messager: Messe des Pêcheurs de Villerville
    Gabriel Fauré : Cantique de Jean Racine
    César Franck : Prelude, Fugue and Variation op. 18
    Augusta Holmès : La vision de la reine

  • Sheffield Chamber Music Festival: Sheffield

    Crucible Playhouse Crucible Theatre, Sheffield, England

    Mozart and Schubert
    Ella Taylor, Robin Ireland & Ensemble 360

    Mozart: Ach, ich fühl’s! (from The Magic Flute)
    Mozart : String Quintet No.4 in G minor K516
    Trad. Se solen sjunker (Swedish folksong)
    Schubert :Piano Trio No.2 in E flat

    Music in the Round is delighted to welcome Robin Ireland back to the Crucible, a venue he knows so well from his years as violist with the Lindsay String Quartet.

    Robin will join Ensemble 360 for one of Mozart’s finest chamber works, his String Quintet in G minor. It’s a work that’s rich in drama, the hallmark of one of the greatest opera composers, and a delicate aria from Mozart’s The Magic Flute will lead straight into the Quintet.

    Schubert’s Second Piano Trio was one of the final pieces he completed before his death at the young age of 31. It’s a work of incredible emotional depth, with its most famous melody, frequently used in soundtracks for film and television, inspired by a traditional Swedish folksong.

    Saint-Saëns. The Renaissance Man

    Saint-Saëns:
    Morceau de concert for horn and piano
    Bassoon Sonata
    Les odeurs de Paris
    L’assassinat du duc de guise
    The Carnival of the Animals

    Camille Saint-Saëns’ most celebrated work, ‘The Carnival of the Animals’ is a work unlike any other, transporting the listener into a musical menagerie that includes a swan, a tortoise, lions and a plunge into a truly magical aquarium. It is presented here alongside rarely performed pieces including ‘Les odeurs de Paris’, a musical riot, with the addition of trumpets and children’s toys to convey the many smells of Paris. Early French film The Assassination of the Duke of Guise is one of the very first to feature an original film score. Written by Saint-Saëns, the music will be performed live alongside a screening of the film in a celebration of the beloved French composer.
