Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective

The exciting Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective in performance. Includes Schubert's Notturno, Amy Beach's Piano Quintet and new arrangements of some of Reynaldo Hahn's best-known songs.

Last month, as the pandemic played havoc with venues' plans up and down the country, the 大象传媒's Maida Vale Studio 1 played host to the Halifax Philharmonic Club and one of today's most exciting chamber ensembles. The Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective was founded in 2017 but the international group has quickly gained a reputation for its fresh approach to programming and memorable performances: a 鈥渟parky, shape-shifting ensemble of starry young musicians鈥 as one critic put it.

Their programme begins with Schubert's Notturno, by turns rapt and dramatic, and ends with Amy Beach's big-boned piano quintet. In between come a serene Handel aria and a selection of exquisite Reynaldo Hahn songs in ear-opening new arrangements for chamber group by Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective co-founder Tom Poster.

Recorded in November and introduced by Linton Stephens.
