Pelléas Ensemble II

The prize-winning flute, viola and harp trio known for their “verve and polish” (The Times) are back for their second midday concert in Aldeburgh.

Formed in 2011, the Pelléas Ensemble won the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Henderson Chamber Ensemble Award in 2018. Their Wigmore Hall debut was praised for its “captivating vitality” and “effortlessness and delicacy” (Seen and Heard International). They have appeared live on BBC Radio 3’s ‘In Tune’, and have given numerous recitals in London and around the UK. In this concert, the Pelléas Ensemble perform a dynamic and varied programme of works by Lully, Anna Clyne, Dowland, Purcell, Smyth and Duruflé.

J.B Lully:
Selections from Trio de la Chambre du Roi, LWV 35 (10')
Anna Clyne:
Beware Of (7')
Dowland arr. Pelléas:
In Darkness Let me Dwell / If My Complaints could Passions Move (6')
Purcell:
Fantasia upon One Note (4')
Ethel Smyth:
Variations on Bonny Sweet Robin (8')
Maurice Duruflé:
Prelude, Recitatif et Variations (12')
