Duo Kneale - Yuan, bassoon and piano
About
Hailed by the Daily Telegraph as “a new star…who wields his instrument with virtuosic skill and with moves you usually associate with a rock guitarist”, Matthew Kneale is one of Australia’s leading lights on the bassoon.He was the first ever bassoonist to be awarded the prestigious Freedman Classical Fellowship. Matthew used this award in late 2019 to embark on an international concert tour that aimed to shatter preconceived notions by presenting the bassoon as a brilliant solo and chamber entity in its own right, with a strong emphasis on music by Australia’s leading young composers.
Matthew returns to Yarragon Studio with pianist Yundi Yuan, and a program with two stunning new works for bassoon and piano, by composer Ian Whitney and composer/fellow bassoonist Ben Hoadley. the program will be concluded with a brand new version of the well-known Glinka Trio for reeds and piano.
