Six Brandenburgs: Six Commissions
COMMISSIONED BY AND PERFORMED AT MUSIC@MALLING APRIL 2022
In April 2022, the complete Brandenburg Concertos were performed alongside six new works by Brian Elias, Michael Price, Deborah Pritchard, Daniel Kidane, Joseph Phibbs and Stevie Wishart in 3 concerts in the iconic setting of Malling Abbey.
You can find out more about Stevie's piece Gold and Precious Silver - an intermezzo for JS Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No 6 here
The concerts received outstanding reviews in the national press.
Fiona Maddocks gave the concerts 5 stars in The Observer “…the music superbly performed by Chamber Domaine.”
David Nice in The Artsdesk gave another 5 star review describing the concerts as: "A colossal achievement made up of seemingly effortless and joyous playing meeting with an equally joyous audience response.”
Michael White in The Catholic Herald commented: “..one of the best musical experiences I have had in ages. Everything felt cherished and delivered from the heart by the formidable musicians of Chamber Domaine."
