This, our closing concert of the International String Competition, draws together the musical forces of Berkshire Maestros and a number of the county’s secondary schools with acclaimed international cellist Raphael Wallfisch in the glorious surroundings of St George’s Chapel.
The evening will see them perform two wonderfully contrasting works by Haydn – his Cello Concerto demonstrates his mastery of the many facets of the cello whilst his Nelson Mass or ‘Mass for Troubled Times’ was written when Austria was in turmoil.
We are very pleased to be working with Berkshire Maestros and such talented young performers, who will pair both of these fine works with Tchaikovsky’s graceful and poised Serenade for Strings.
