Welcome to this year’s festival!
We are delighted to enter our fourth year as Chelsea’s premier chamber and
song festival. In the following pages you will find details of all concerts and
events due to take place this September. The best festivals are about celebrating
great music as well as bringing great performers to the locality; Chelsea is an
extraordinary and vibrant area and it offers a perfect surrounding for our contribution
to the country’s cultural landscape.
This year we present another outstanding programme of concerts, master-classes and
talks, opening with internationally reknowned soprano Sophie Daneman, accompanied by
Eugene Asti and concluding with the young Barbirolli Quartet.
Winterreise, Mignon Lieder,
Des Knaben Wunderhorn, Schubert’s F minor Fantasy and late Piano Sonata in A, Debussy
String Quartet Op.10 and the Brahms Requiem are but a small part of this year’s programming.
We are delighted to welcome back the Doric Quartet, the Prometheus Trio as well as other
celebrated artists.
Come and join us in what promises to be a fantastic celebration of music and the arts.
