2025/S1 Elder Conservatorium Lunchtime Concert | Contrasts

Ensemble Lumen

Nadia Boulanger - Trois Pièces for Cello and Piano
Bartók - Contrasts, Sz. 111
Brahms - Horn Trio, Op. 40


This program, featuring our new staff ensemble, Lumen, delves into the interplay of sound and emotion, showcasing how composers use chamber music to express a spectrum of colours and textures. We begin with Nadia Boulanger’s Trois Pièces, a trio of lyrical vignettes that reflect the refined charm of early 20th-century French music. Bartók’s Contrasts, written for Benny Goodman, blends jazz and Hungarian folk traditions in a dynamic and spirited exchange of ideas. To conclude, Brahms’s Horn Trio unfolds as a rich, soulful dialogue, filled with warmth, depth, and moments of striking beauty. Through these three pieces, we experience how different musical voices, both intimate and bold, can converge to create a rich cornucopia of sound and emotion.
