Hay Music presents Lodestar Trio

 

 

The Lodestar Trio is a collaboration between Scandinavian folk music stars Erik Rydvall, nyckelharpa, Olav Mjelva, hardanger fiddle, and British-German violin virtuoso Max Baillie. Together they bring a spirit of groove and improvisation into Baroque music.

The programme includes re-imagined versions of pieces from the Bach cello suites and Bach’s sonatas and partitas for solo violin, all played in Loadstar Trio’s own arrangements for violin, Swedish nyckelharpa and Norwegian hardanger fiddle.  Also on the programme are Baroque works by Merula, Couperin and Lully, alongside traditional and contemporary Nordic tunes.

Programme
Joseph Haydn:  Quartet Op. 76 No. 4, ‘Sunrise’
Ryan Latimer:  Spinfall
Antonin  Dvořák:  Quartet No. 13 in G, Op 106

Praised for their “immaculate precision and spirit” (The Strad), the Solem Quartet (Amy Tress – violin, William Newell – violin, Stephen Upshaw – viola, Stephanie Tress – cello) has established itself as one of the most innovative and adventurous quartets of its generation. In 2020 it was amongst the 33 awardees, out of 1200 applicants, of a Jerwood Arts Live Work Fund.

As proud advocates of new music, the Quartet has worked closely with many of today’s leading composers including Thomas Adès, Edmund Finnis, Anna Meredith and Colin Matthews. Tonight, they include Ryan Latimer’s quartet, Spinfall, in their programme.

Tickets £20 / under 25s – £10 from Hay Music
