Fenella Humphreys (violin) and Martin Roscoe (piano): Fauré 100
On the 100th anniversary of the death of Gabriel Fauré, this concert celebrates the composer’s lyrical romanticism with works from the 1870s to the 1890s, including the great first Sonata. Saint-Saëns’ own first Sonata and Ravel’s one movement Sonate Posthume complete a programme that will transport you to the magic of fin-de-siècle Paris.
