Dear Friends,

Apologies – we thought the page had been changed but appeared not to have been saved.

Thank you to Ensemble Augelletti who joined us for three interesting and beautiful concerts earlier in April.

We now look forward to welcoming the GREENWICH TRIO to Concerts in the West for the first time.

GREENWICH TRIO

Beethoven  Piano Trio, Op 1, no 1

Jennifer Higdon  Piano Trio (2003)

Daniel Fardon  ‘The Pips’ from Equation of Time  (2026)

Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel  Piano Trio, Op 11

Bridport: Beethoven & Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel

Formed in London in 2006, the GREENWICH TRIO brings together Slovenian violinist Lana Trotovšek, Canadian cellist Heather Tuach, and Japanese pianist Yoko Misumi. Described by Bernard Greenhouse as the “New Beaux Arts Trio,” they quickly earned major awards including the Solti Foundation and Tunnell Trust Awards and the top prize at the Beethoven Society of Europe Chamber Music Competition.

As an ensemble they have appeared at leading festivals such as Cheltenham and Bath, and at venues including London’s Kings Place, and Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw. Their release of the complete Brahms Piano Trios has received five-star reviews from BBC Music Magazine. Alongside their chamber work, the members maintain distinguished solo careers.

Taking part – We are delighted to hear from musicians who would like to take part in the series. However we get so many requests that it is difficult to respond to every email (we do try) but thank you for your interest. I am sorry if this appears rude but we are a very small team. If you don’t hear from me then I am afraid there are no dates available for the foreseeable future.

Applications will be considered carefully but as we only have eight to ten tours a year I can make no promises. You will need to email me a CV, a concert biography and a photograph. Our performers have generally been trained to a minimum of post-graduate conservatoire level and are in the process of establishing themselves in the profession; some are a little older and returning to CinW. A little warning: we are not able to pay big fees as we play in small, intimate venues; we are a charity; and out of London, where life is very different.

Concerts in the West was launched in 2006. We aim to bring talented young professional musicians to small, intimate venues in the West Country, in areas that may not have easy access to music of this quality. Short intensive tours, lasting a few days, are arranged mainly in Dorset and Somerset.

We feel privileged to hear music performed to such a high standard. The repertoire is enormously varied and gives local audiences a wonderful opportunity to hear both familiar and unusual works for voice and instrument in many combinations.

Lana Trotovšek, violin

Heather Tuach, cello
