Music at Tresanton (3/4)

Petroc Trelawny introduces works by Faur茅 and Enescu, along with Florent Schmitt's substantial String Trio, performed by Caerus Chamber Ensemble in St Mawes Chapel in Cornwall.

Petroc Trelawny is back in St Mawes, a tiny fishing village on the Roseland peninsula in Cornwall for more performances given by Caerus Chamber Ensemble at this year's Music at Tresanton festival.

As well as works by Faur茅 and Enescu, today there's a chance to hear Florent Schmitt's substantial and demanding String Trio. Written in the 1940s, the original performers took over a year to perfect their parts, but beyond the technical challenges, it is a work of originality and wit, which deserves to be better known.
