Beethoven: String Quintet in C major Op.29 
 The Vanbrugh and their guests present Beethoven's Op.29 string quintet, 'The Storm'. Written in 1801, shortly after his Op.18 string quartets this great and seldom heard work combines his mastery of quartet writing with the expansive richness of texture offered by the addition of a second viola.

John Godfrey discusses Karen Power’s works ‘we return to ground’, 'Sonic Pollinators' and 'Instruments of Ice', composed for Quiet Music Ensemble, of which John is the director. The ensemble is dedicated to an aesthetic in which sound is less seen as something to organise and more as something to explore. Power’s works are created from field recordings made all over the world; QME engages with these recordings to produce a soundscape in which natural and performed sounds blend to create a living, constantly changing sonic kaleidoscope. The talk will include the world’s first chance to hear QME’s recent studio recordings of these pieces, due to be released on Other Minds later this year.

Pianist David Syme, UCC/Ritmüller Classical Artist in Residence, will offer a program of short pieces drawn from his vast repertoire.
