Franz Schubert by Wilhelm A

A Schubertiade

18 October 2024, 7:30pm - 9:00pm

Our Schubert weekend has a prelude in the form of this exuberant Schubertiade, with a welcome return from the ensemble Schubert & Co., whose sell-out performances at previous Festivals have always been joyous occasions. Expect dances and drinking songs, alongside much more intimate ensemble works that give an insight into the composer’s sociable inner circle; a group of friends and occasions that inspired deeply personal works.

Schubert & Co.
Harriet Burns soprano
Katy Thomson soprano
Katie Bray  mezzo-soprano
Bethan Langford mezzo-soprano
Alessandro Fisher tenor
Frederick Long bass-baritone
Sholto Kynoch piano

During this evening's concert, and almost all evenings in the first week of the Festival, one of our eight exceptional Young Artist Programme duos will give a 15-minute showcase performance.
