JORDANS MUSIC CLUB

SUMMER FESTIVAL

30th May - 11th July 2010

Our season is now completed. The next season will be announced in the Autumn

Welcome to the Jordans Music Club Summer Festival. After our very successful 2009 season, we again have a marvellous line up of artists for our four Sunday evening concerts in 2010, with a wide variety of chamber music to suit everyone.

Our 67th season will begin on 30th May, with an internationally renowned young French quartet, Quatuor Ebène, who will play the second of Haydn’s Op 71 quartets and Mendelssohn’s last quartet, the highly emotive F minor, as well as the Debussy G minor quartet which features on their latest recording of French quartets, awarded ‘Recording of the Year’ by Gramophone magazine. This is followed on 13th June by the talented harpsichord and string ensemble, Sounds Baroque , performing ‘A Baroque Cornucopia’ of music from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

We then welcome back on 27th June the celebrated international pianist Stephen Kovacevich who will play an exciting programme, opening with Bach’s sublime 4th Partita, a short piece by that most subtle of composers, Takemitsu, continuing with Schumann Kinderszenen (in the composer’s 200th anniversary year) and concluding with one of Schubert’s last sonatas, the Bb major. Our season closes on 11th July with another very special recital. The renowned clarinettist, Robert Plane, is joined by two other outstanding musicians, cellist Guy Johnston and pianist Sophia Rahman and a young singer, Sara Lian at the start of what promises to be a very exciting career, for a varied programme of trios and duets.

Do come along and hear these wonderful talents. We look forward to welcoming you.
