Homages from Schumann to Janacek
Today in the Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend from Saffron Hall, Mark Simpson presents homages by Kurtag and himself, plus the Navarra String Quartet play Janacek's 'Kreutzer' Sonata.
Tom McKinney presents the Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend recorded at Saffron Hall in Essex, which brings the composer and virtuoso clarinettist Mark Simpson together with his friends in some of the music he loves best, played alongside his own chamber-music works. Today, he presents a sequence of homages, starting with Schumann's much-loved M盲rchenerz盲lungen, Kurtag's Homage to Schumann and Simpson's own Homage to Kurtag. The Navarra String Quartet play Janacek's own homage to the Kreutzer Sonata, the nickname for the String Quartet No.1.
Mark Simpson is a former 大象传媒 Young Musician of the Year and Radio 3 New Generation Artist.
