It is encouraging to see composers such as Irish Joan Trimble (1915–2000) and French Cécile Chaminade (1857–1944) now receiving the attention in concert programmes that their music truly deserves. Trimble’s music has likely never before been performed at Konserthuset Stockholm.
Joan Trimble was a remarkable figure – an active composer and touring piano soloist. She also taught at the Royal College of Music in London while serving as editor-in-chief of The Impartial Reporter, a newspaper in her hometown of Enniskillen, Northern Ireland. Of her music, Trimble once said: “It belongs to no school or era. What matters is to express oneself freely.” That freedom comes through in her Phantasy Trio from 1940.
Like Joan Trimble, Cécile Chaminade was a touring concert pianist, performing her own works. In recent years, Chaminade has also gained renewed attention for her many songs. In this concert, pianist Anders Kilström – professor at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm – takes on the piano part in Chaminade’s dramatic and powerful second piano trio, composed in the late 1880s. He is joined by Mikael Sjögren, associate principal cellist of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, and Patrik Swedrup, former second concertmaster of the orchestra.
