Caption: Chris Garden, Margaret Butcher and Robyn Bradley will perform works by Mozart and Schumann.
THE Music for a Market Sunday concert at the Uniting Church on 30 June at 12.30pm will feature two unusual trios. Clarinet, viola and piano aren’t often heard together but Chris Garden, Margaret Butcher and Robyn Bradley will perform works by Mozart and Schumann that promise to give a new insight into these composers.
Chris, Margaret and Robyn are well known in Armidale as performers and teachers and this is a great opportunity to hear their collaboration.
Schumann’s Märchenerzählungen was written in1853, three years before his death, and the clarinet part is sometimes played on the violin.
The Mozart, Kegelstatt (skittle alley) trio is not known to have been written at a skittle alley, though several basset horn duos written a month earlier explicitly state that they were.
Maybe the audience can decide if they can hear influence.
Admission to the concert is free, though donations are encouraged. Tea and sausages are available at the Uniting Church before the concert.
