Leon Bosch and I Musicanti
About
Boccherini Quintet No.3 in DBottesini Gran Quintetto in C
Mokale Koapeng Quintet for Strings
Dvorak String Quintet in G Op.77
Founded and directed by international double bass virtuoso Leon Bosch, I Musicanti is a flexible, mixed-instrument chamber ensemble bringing together some of the UK’s most distinguished soloists and chamber musicians. The ensemble was created to explore repertoire that falls between the cracks of convention: great works by neglected composers, overlooked masterpieces by celebrated figures, and historically significant repertoire that deserves a modern voice.
At the heart of I Musicanti’s work lies a commitment to intelligent programming and rigorous scholarship, combined with the spontaneity and freedom of true chamber music collaboration. Programmes are built around curiosity and rediscovery, often juxtaposing familiar works with unjustly forgotten ones, or presenting chamber arrangements that illuminate major repertoire from a new perspective.
Leon and I Musicanti are one of the Peak Music audience's favourites - this will be the third time they have performed at the Cavendish Hall.
Doors open 45 minutes before performance. There are large double doors at the side of the building with no steps that allow easy access for wheelchairs directly into the hall. Please let us know if you need to reserve space for wheelchairs. There is no reserved seating (except for those in wheelchairs). It is first come, first served, but the hall is not large (about twelve rows of twelve seats) and the acoustics are excellent throughout.
Tickets for those in full-time education are £10 direct from secretary@peakmusicsociety.org.uk
VERY IMPORTANT - please note! There is a Cavendish Village Hall in the village of Beeley (postcode DE45 2NU), 2.5 miles away at the other end of the Chatsworth Park from Edensor. This shows up when you Google "Cavendish Hall Edensor", and we have been told that one or two car SatNav systems have been wrongly locating our postcode DE45 1PJ there as well, so please check you are headed for Edensor and not Beeley before you drive off! If you Google "Peak Music Society" it will show the correct position on the map.
