Rosetti Ensemble with Leon Bosch (double bass) - CMS

This piano quartet was formed in 2018 by four virtuoso musicians - long-standing friends and chamber music partners.

Tonight they add a double bass and we are in for a treat.

The first half offers two rarities: Bax’s powerful piano quartet in one movement, and Vaughan Williams’ early piano quintet with its Brahmsian first movement and palette of lyricism and emotional contrast.

In the second half we are calmed by a return to the familiarity of Schubert’s much loved ‘Trout’ quintet.
