The trio comprises Swiss violinist Ambra Albek, Italian viola player Simone Gramaglia, and British cellist Jamie Walton, who lives nearby on the North York Moors.
The programme, focusing on the pinnacle of the string trio repertoire, will be:
Schubert String trio in B flat D471
Beethoveen String trio Op.9 No.2 in D major
Mozart Divertimento in E flat major K563
The concert is a fringe event of the North York Moors Chamber Music Festival, which Jamie Walton founded and which this year celebrates its 10th anniversary with performances in 10 churches across the North York Moors National Park between 12 and 25 August.
Jamie says: “As with all of our Festival events, the concert will have a friendly and relaxed atmosphere – and with anyone under 30 entitled to a free ticket, we hope that many of the area’s young people will take this opportunity to hear some wonderful classical music in a beautiful venue.
“All three of us have performed all over the world but like nothing better than coming together in an inspired, relaxed and unique environment which North Yorkshire offers in abundance. Relaxed, yet capacity, audiences also contribute to tis unusual atmosphere and 2018 looks set to be a particularly special year for us.”
Tickets for the Kirkbymoorside concert are £12.50, with free admission for under-30s, and can be booked by phone on 07722 038990, by email on booking@northyorkmoorsfestival.com, or online (and for more information o the North York Moors Chamber music Festival) at www.northyorkmoorsfesitval.com
