DVOŘÁK Piano Quintet (39’)
MARTINŮ Nonet (16’)
VITKAUSKAITÉ New work (c.10’)
Three centuries of music feature in this much-anticipated return to the Crucible Studio, with a 19th century classic, a large-scale gem of the 20th century chamber repertoire and a world premiere composed in 2021. Nine members of Ensemble 360 feature in Martinů’s tuneful and optimistic, richly textured Nonet in a concert that opens with Dvořák’s lyrical and lively folk dance-inspired masterpiece. Music in the Round presents the latest in their series of RPS chamber music commissions: a new work for piano trio by Rūta Vitkauskaitė.
