Kindred spirits Matthew Barley and Mishka Rushdie Momen share a refreshing attitude to thinking about and performing music, always ready to reject tired conventions yet alive to the essential spirit that unites the best of past and present. Their programme revels in the cello’s singing line, present in Barley’s elegant transcriptions of Lieder by Robert Schumann and the lyrical warmth and expressive gravity of Brahms’s First Cello Sonata.
