Gould Piano Trio
The Guildhall, Portsmouth
Monday 20 May 2024, 7.30pm

BRAHMS Piano Trio No.3 in C minor, Op.101 (21’)
DVOŘÁK Piano Trio No.4 in E minor, Op.90 ‘Dumky’ (32’)
The Gould Piano Trio returns to Portsmouth after a warmly received collaboration with violist Gary Pomeroy in 2021. At the heart of this concert is Dvořák’s most celebrated chamber work, the ‘Dumky’ trio which takes its name from a bohemian lament. This earthy and emotionally rich work is full of contrasts, folk tunes and invention. Paired with a rarely performed trio from a celebrated opera composer and Brahms’s lush, dramatic third piano trio, this promises to be an evening of high drama and the finest musicianship.
There will be a post-show Q&A with the artists and Colin Jagger of Portsmouth Chamber Music.
