Sarah Walker presents a selection of highlights from the 2022 Two Moors Festival and the 2023 Cowbridge Music Festival. Violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen, who is also the Artistic Director of the Two Moors Festival, teams up with the Orsino Ensemble to present the popular and beautifully lyrical Romance Opus 11 by Dvo艡谩k. The Orsino Ensemble continue with music by a composer celebrated for his works for wind instruments. Anton Reicha was a teacher of Berlioz and Liszt, and his Andante in D minor, and a further twenty-five quintets, are a mainstay of the woodwind repertoire. The concert concludes with a performance from the Cowbridge Music Festival. Trio Gaspard perform Smetana鈥檚 Piano Trio in G minor, Opus 15, which is full of heartfelt loss and emotion as the composer wrote it at a time when he struggled with the recent death of one of his daughters.
