VIOLA player Rosalind Ventris and pianist Lara Dodds-Eden will perform new works by David Lancaster, from York St John University, and Peter Byrom-Smith at their York Late Music concert this weekend.
Nicola LeFanu’s A Postcard And A Letter, for solo piano, Arvo Pärt’s Spiegel im Spiegel, Krzysztof Penderecki’s Cadenza and Sally Beamish’s Pennillion, both for solo viola, will be in the 7.30pm programme too.
Composer Tansy Davies will give a pre-concert talk at 6.45pm before Rosalind, pictured, and Lara play her work Small Black Stone.
“Rosalind Ventris is going to go places,” says Late Music administrator Steve Crowther. “She’s making her Late Music debut after playing at the University of York last year and her CV is really gaining momentum.
“She’s having pieces written for already, such as Edwin Roxburgh’s Monologue for Solo Viola, which will be the opening work on Saturday.”
This concert is presented in association with Live Music Now. Tickets are available online at latemusic.org or on the door.
Rosalind Ventris and Lara Dodds-Eden, York Late Music Concert Series, York Unitarian Chapel, St Saviourgate, York, Saturday
