Fidelio Trio • 6.30pm
Since their debut at London’s Southbank Centre, the Fidelio Trio have regularly appeared at the Wigmore Hall and Kings Place, at festivals including Spitalfields, Cheltenham, St. Magnus and Huddersfield. Their extensive discography includes most recently a Gramophone Magazine Editor’s Choice of Chamber Music by E J Moeran, a composer with whom they are closely associated and the release of premiere recordings on Mode Records of music by Gerald Barry.
The trio will also return to Conway Hall on 5 November 2023, to perform the works chosen for the final round of our Clements Prize for composers – a date for your diaries!
“The performances are absolutely wonderful…stylish virtuosity…instinctive brilliance…”

Pre-Concert Talk with Robert Hugill • 5.30pm
Robert Hugill introduces the story of musical autodidact Amy Beach. Trained as a concert pianist, marriage and societal pressure stopped her performing and she reinvented herself as a composer, becoming the first successful American female composer of large-scale art music and one of the first American composers to succeed without the benefit of European training.
