We welcome Slovenian violinist Lana Trotovšek and Spanish pianist Maria Canyigueral to Leamington for the first time, delighted to be able to keep our European connections alive.

Following our Festival themes, they bring RVW’s original 1914 version of The Lark Ascending for violin and piano, paired with Ravel’s astonishing later Violin Sonata.

Tartini was born in Piran, on the coast of Slovenia, south of Trieste, and his explosive ‘Devil’s Trill’ Sonata is a treat. The addition of Prokofiev to the programme introduces a Russian flavour ahead of Monday night’s Festival finale.
