​An evening of musical joy and intrigue, beginning with the seldom heard Grand Septet by Franz Berwald - undoubtedly influenced by the Beethoven Septet heard earlier in the day, this is a work of great humour and elegance.  Our resident musical expert Stephen Johnson enthralled us last year with his wonderful duo for clarinet and oboe, and once again he has written something specially for us in his slightly unsettling Unquiet Sleepers, an exciting World Premiere performance. Xenakis' Psappha is an exciting solo percussion piece dedicated to the Greek Poet of the same name. Her sensuous writing was famous for its early descriptions in the first person of love and sensuality.  We finish this wide-ranging programme with Franck's Piano Quintet, of which the Goldner Quartet and Piers Lane have delighted in performing together for many years.
