Overview
William Walton’s four-movement Piano Quartet, astrikingly assured product of his mid-teens, offersan ideal vehicle to demonstrate the formidabletalents of the Stratos Quartet, the first pianoquartet ever to join ECMA.
Trio Vitruvi, establishedin 2013, explores the dark, intense Piano Trio inG minor, written in the early phase of Chausson’sstudies with César Franck.
The ECMA Showcase has been supported by a gift from the estates of the late Thomas and Betty Elton in memory of Sigmund Elton
