Sarah Walker presents a selection of highlights from the 2022 Two Moors Festival and the 2023 Cowbridge Music Festival. Rosalind Ventris and Ll欧r Williams begin this concert with the second of Brahms鈥檚 Opus 120 sonatas, a work that's more frequently recorded in its version for clarinet and piano. Here, the viola brings its own unique qualities to this mighty, three movement masterpiece. Music by Kod谩ly then follows, an early romantic work where the lilting melodies and leaping intervals are reminiscent of folksongs from Hungary. The concert ends with music recorded at All Saint鈥檚 Church in Dulverton, and Beethoven arranged for wind by Rechtman. The Orsino Ensemble perform the Quintet in E flat major, Opus 71, which reminds flautist Adam Walker of Beethoven鈥檚 mighty Eroica symphony.
