Fitzwilliam Cafe Concert Programme


Last Friday (20th January) saw our first Café Concert of 2012- The Fitzwilliam Duo, featuring Colin Scobie (violin) and Heather Tuach (cello). Heather will be a familiar face for all those who come to our Main Concerts, as she heads up our celli section. Colin is the newest member of the Fitzwilliam Quartet, following the retirement of their second violinist of 37 years Jonathan Sparey, and he currently plays a violin from Jonathan’s own collection.

As mentioned above, the duo played a varied repertoire that ranged from Bach, to Bartok, to Kodaly. We had a number of audience members approach us about the pieces they played, so in response to this we will post the Cafe Concert programmes after they take place, so all those who came can find out exactly what it is they heard.

Here’s the programme for The Fitzwilliam Duo’s Café Concert:

'Methodical' Sonata in A Major - Georg Philipp Telemann

Two-Part Inventions - Johann Sebastian Bach

Hungarian Folk Melodies - Béla Bartok

Duo Op. 7 - Zoltan Kodaly

Passacaglia - Johan Halvorson
