Philharmonia Chamber Players: Brahms & Lisney
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]In this 45-minute concert, the Philharmonia Chamber Players marry the warm, Central European influences of Brahms with a contemporary work by Joy Lisney.
Repertoire
- Joy Lisney: String Quartet (C'est l'extase)
- Brahms: String Sextet No.1 in B flat, Op.18
From its broad, embracing opening, Brahms’ luscious sextet unfolds as a deeply lyrical work, though a sadness lurks beneath its lush textures.
At times as forceful as it is wistful, the Hungarian-inspired melodies and tunes of its middle movements sway the listener.
In this concert, Brahms is preceded by Joy Lisney’s C’est L’extase. Taking its title from Paul Verlaine’s deeply dreamy poem, it is an intimate portrayal of euphoria and languid peace.
Pop in just for this 45-minute concert, or stay to hear the Philharmonia perform a Czech-inspired programme at Dvořák Violin Concerto with James Ehnes, conducted by Kevin John Edusei at 7.30pm.
