Trio Ecossaise

The next Music Society concert will be on Saturday February 21st at the theatre in Arran High School, starting at 1.30 pm. It features three sparkling players, Jennifer Brown, clarinet, Harriet Davidson, cello and Clair Haslin, piano. As a contrast to the January concert with its focus on traditional music, these three talented musicians field a classic repertoire, with music by composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, Bruch and Brahms. All three players have played with leading orchestras and are building a great reputation for their performances as a trio, and the concert promises to be a real delight. Individually, they have been to Arran before and delighted their audiences, so it is a great pleasure to see them return.

Their programme is a wide-ranging one, featuring Beethoven’s Trio in B flat major, Opus 11 and Fauré’s lovely Elégie for cello and piano. These are followed by the Fantasy Trio, Opus 26 Robert Muczynski and, after the interval, Carl Fruhling’s Trio in A minor.

Tickets are £10, which includes free refreshments at the interval, and can be bought at the door or in advance from Inspirations of Arran, or online from Arran Events. Anyone bringing a child with them gets in free, as the Music Society is always delighted to see young people enjoying music.
