Artiste: Richard Lester

Wie es sein soll: Kammermusik als Ensemblekunst – und gleichrangig reihte sich der Stardirigent ein.

The Gould Piano Trio's Cheltenham Music Festival matinee proves the restorative power of chamber music in this spa venue of Regency refinement. 

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-88), the second son of J.S. Bach, was a hugely talented composer in his own right, but his music is still rarely heard on the concert stage. In fact, it is not just his works, but the whole pre-classical repertory between Bach/Handel and Haydn/Mozart still lies largely unexplored except in recordings.
