Poulenc and Brahms from Welsh Festivals in 2019
Nicola Heywood Thomas presents music by Poulenc and Brahms from the 2019 music festivals of Gower and Machynlleth.
Nicola Heywood Thomas presents a selection of music recorded at three festivals in Wales in 2019, including in this programme, the Gower and Machynlleth festivals. The concert starts with music performed by the celebrated Welsh pianist Ll欧r Williams at the Gower Festival, where he delighted the audience with Poulenc鈥檚 Les Soir茅es de Nazelles. Ll欧r Williams introduced the music by saying that he felt the music was a set of eight depictions of the composer鈥檚 friends, sitting round the piano at Nazelles. This is followed by a classic of the cello repertoire, the Cello Sonata No 1 by Brahms. It was performed by Camille Thomas at the Machynlleth Festival, and is a particular favourite of the pianist Julius Drake.
