Schubert's Schwanengesang from East Neuk Festival 2025
Music by Schubert and Janáček from East Neuk Festival 2025, featuring the Pavel Haas Quartet, tenor Mark Padmore, baritone James Newby and pianist Joseph Middleton
A concert celebrating the music of Schubert from this year's East Neuk Festival and performed at Crail Parish Church in Fife. The Pavel Haas Quartet open the concert with music by Leoš Janáček, his String Quartet No 1 which he called his "Kreutzer Sonata" written in October 1923 and inspired by a Tolstoy novella of the same name.
The quartet are then joined by cellist Ivan Vokač for Schubert's Quintet in C, a wonderfully expressive piece of chamber music and written only a few months before the composer's death in 1828.
To finish, Schubert's song cycle "Schwanengesang" D.957, performed by tenor Mark Padmore, baritone James Newby with pianist Joseph Middleton.
