About this event
The pianist Julian Milford is joined by Spanish clarinet soloist Maximiliano Martin and Marcus Barcham-Stevens, leader of the Britten Sinfonia, for a programme which will feature the Suite from Stravinsky’s 1918 Soldier’s Tale, based on Russian folk tales about a soldier’s battle with the devil. They will also perform Schumann’s Fantasiestucke for clarinet and piano and Brahms’ Violin Sonata in G. The programme concludes with the brilliant Bartok Contrasts, written for BennyGoodman, with its fiery gypsy-inspired final movement.
