The Chineke! Chamber Ensemble return to the annual Brighton Festival for a live concert at the Brighton Dome Concert Hall.
Florence B. Price – Two Folksongs in Counterpoint: ‘Drink to me with thine own eyes’ and ‘Shortnin’ Bread‘
Schubert Piano Quintet in A D667, ‘Trout’
Chineke!’s chamber ensemble performs Schubert’s beloved ‘Trout’ quintet, in which gossamer textures and infectious tunes conjure a summer idyll, alongside arrangements by the remarkable American composer Florence Price of two folksongs. Price drew on her African–American heritage to create music of rare depth and eloquence, spiking the great European classical tradition with the rhythms and sensibilities of spirituals and West African music.
