Selby & Friends - Blossom and Grow

Featuring Dvořák’s glorious Piano Quintet, the opening tour for 2013 presents the three primary piano ensembles combination favoured by composers over the last two and a half centuries and does so in grand fashion. Opening with Mozart’s inimitable development of the piano trio as an ensemble to be reckoned with, this concert then moves to the impressionistic flavour Fauré’s first great piano quartet and the concert ends with one of the most popular piano quintets of all time. With return appearances by British violinist, Elizabeth Layton and US cellist Clancy Newman, S&F invites newcomers Tobias Breider (SSO Principal Violist) and special guest, the first S&F Development Artist, to join Artistic Director/pianist Kathryn Selby for an impressive, melody filled evening of great music performed by superb artists.
