Another piece for clarinet, violin and piano features in our Festival Finale with Matt being joined this time by Alasdair Beatson and Alina Ibragimova in a performance of Bartok's 'Contrasts'. Before this, a performance of Mozart's jubilant and yet rarely-heard E flat String Quintet. The festival is closed in style by the master of French music, Gabriel Fauré, with LCMF musicians performing one of his final chamber works, the second piano quintet op.115.
