What a delight! An evening of solo viola, piano and together. What an amazing way to spend a Friday evening.
The viola and piano pieces really complemented each other. Wonderful playing.
I really appreciated how the musicians empathetically supported each other.
‘Chocolates’ – A quality street of sound.
I’ve looked forward to this concert all week. After a hard week at work, it has been a wonderful, relaxing experience.
I enjoyed every single minute of the concert! I think it’s incredible how the society invites these talented people!
Wonderful delicacy from both artists.
Yet another fantastic concert – thank you.
Fantastic playing, plus nice to hear a viola on its own. Enjoying the evening very much.
Absolutely splendid. Always good to see such talented young musicians “on the way up.”
Yet another sparkling programme so beautifully performed. Blessed to be able to enjoy it.
Beautifully and sensitively played. The Schumann was one of the most moving pieces I’ve heard in ages.
The Bach was wonderful – so free and expressive.
