2005
2005
saw the Ardeton Ensemble perform concerts across the UK both as a
String Trio and as an Oboe Quartet with Julie
Payne. There were concerts in the
Chew Valley and in Clifton, Bristol, including works such as the
Schubert String Trio and the Mozart and Britten Oboe Quartets. The
concerts also provided an opportunity for audiences to hear
members of the group perform solo items such as the music from Schindler’s
List, and Bach Solo Cello Suites.
Highlights of the Summer were performances in Manchester and at
the Pulse Fringe Festival in Ipswich, both of which were warmly
received by audiences.
The group also took part in an education workshop with A-level and
GCSE music students in composition.
