Return to Eindhoven
In January 2010 Britten Sinfonia, with Pekka Kuusisto, Mark Padmore and Nico Muhly, embarked on a 13 date tour of the UK and Europe. The tour – called Britten in America – was a fantastic success.
The tour began in Eindhoven, and this weekend sees Britten Sinfonia and Pekka Kuusisto returning there with Nico Muhly to give the World Premiere of his Triple Concerto for Violin, Cello, and Piano. The concert will also see the orchestra performing with the acclaimed Storioni Trio for the first time at the Storioni Festival.
Nico Muhly’s Triple Concerto for Violin, Cello, and Piano is a co-commission by Britten Sinfonia and Muziekcentrum Frits Philips and will be given its world premiere on Saturday 22 January 2011.
