For the third in the most recent series of concerts "Britten Sinfonia at Lunch" Simon Holt creates a new piece to complement a performance of Schubert's celebrated "Trout" Quintet. Schubert's quintet is scored for the unusual combination of piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass and the fourth of its five movements is based on the famous Schubert song, Die Forelle - "The Trout" - from which the quintet takes its name.
In Simon Holt's new piece he takes up the challenge of writing for the same combination of instruments using them to depict the fall of Icarus.
