09:10:10 - Music in the Round - Ensemble 360 @ Priory Place Methodist Church

HAYDN Piano Trio in D minor
SAINT-SAËNS Sonata for Bassoon and Piano
WATKINS Horn Trio
BRAHMS Piano Quintet Op. 34

Ensemble 360 returns to the music of Huw Watkins after the world premiere and tour of Broken Consort three years ago. His Horn Trio, premiered by Benjamin Nabarro in 2009, is an equally impressive and beautiful work.

Amy Harman, Ensemble 360’s new bassoonist, performs Saint-Saëns’ cheerful Bassoon Sonata which he wrote in the final year of his life.

Like so many of his works, Brahms’s great F minor Piano Quintet caused him significant trouble. He originally conceived it as a String Quintet, then a Sonata for Two Pianos before alighting on this ingenious version.
