We open the Autumn series with the fabulous Kosmos Ensemble. Harriet MacKenzie - violin, Meg Hamilton - viola and Milos Milivojevic - accordion, have crafted a programme unique to Kosmos performed with: ‘telepathic rapport, dazzling virtuosity, serious scholarship, intellectual curiosity and impeccable musicianship.’ - Richard Morrison, The Times. An inspirational combination of Tango, Gypsy, Balkan and music from the Far East, referencing Classical composers, including Corelli, Piazzolla and Sarasate, with fearless improvisation and impeccable technique. Prepare to be intoxicated by entrancing dance rhythms, soulful improvisation and gypsy passion delivered with inimitable panache and virtuoso technique. Kosmos has performed internationally to great acclaim and has given tours in Poland, Italy, Spain, Greece, Channel islands; broadcasts on BBC Radio 3 and Classic FM.
All three members of Kosmos are soloists in their own right and have recorded concertos with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, English Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra Nova to critical acclaim. ‘Major verve and musicality.... as breath-taking as it is moving... impressive and brilliantly effective’ - Rob Adams, The Herald.
