Camilla Marchant

As an enthusiastic orchestral musician, Camilla performs with the Philharmonia Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, English National Opera and Royal Northern Sinfonia. With the LSO, she recorded the soundtrack for The Shape of Water, which received the Oscar for Best Original Score.
Camilla recently graduated from the Royal Academy of Music, being awarded the Regent Fellowship, and the Tebbutt Exhibition Award for achievement. During her studies, Camilla performed as principal flute under the baton of Semyon Bychov and Yan Pascal Tortelier, receiving commendatory reviews for her performance in Mahler’s 9th Symphony. As a soloist, Camilla regularly performs in recitals and competitions; most recently winning the Woodwind Prize and Flute Prize at the Royal College of Music, the Piccolo Prize at the RAM, and was a finalist in the Yamaha Music Europe Competition. Camilla also won the opportunity for a debut concerto performance at Cadogan Hall, leading to further performances in Switzerland. |

Thomas is currently pursuing an Artist Diploma at the Guildhall School under Andrew West and Eugene Asti, having previously studied at the Royal Academy of Music with Hamish Milne and Diana Ketler. He has won prizes for his performances of Beethoven, Frederick Delius, Arthur Bliss and the contemporary piano repertoire.
In other chamber groups he maintains a strong interest in unusual repertoire of the late Romantic, as well as mid-20th-century British music. He has also earned recognition as a specialist in the music of Nikolai Kapustin, having played and conducted world premieres of his compositions in the UK, Singapore, Australia and Taiwan. Off the concert stage, Thomas works as a répétiteur and ballet pianist. He sometimes accompanies and improvises for silent film, having performed at the Barbican Cinema in Erotikon by Gustav Machatý.

Jean Sibelius, arr Marchant
from Belshazzar’s Feast Suite Op 51 (1906-07)
3 Nocturne
We hear the flute of Katy Ovens who has performed in these lunchtime concerts several times. Her accompanist is Kumi Mizuno, in the Disciple Church, Sale Marasino, Italy, during the 2015 William Bennett Flute Summer School:
Henri Dutilleux
Sonatine for Flute and Piano (1943) (disowned!)
1 Allegretto fairly brisk
2 Andante moderately
3 Animé lively
Dutilleux disowned much of his earlier work, pre 1943, as not being the work of the fully developed composer. Despite this, the Sonatine is one of his most performed pieces. The sections run continuously, connected by cadanza. This recording from the University of Cincinnati's Ribert J Werner Recital Hall features flutist Matthew Ross, with pianist Kseniia Polstiankina
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Abendempfindungen an Laura Evening Feelings, for Laura (1787
Laura is probably that mythical representation of love and beauty from Italian poetry, rather than a lady known to Mozart. The piece is often known as simply Abendempfindung, or Feeling, which is a strange singular in either language. Mozart set the song to a text by Heinrich Campe. Let's listen to the song, with soprano Sophie Karthäuser and pianist Eugene Asti:
Henri Büsser
Andalucia sur des thèmes Andalous Op 86
The performers here are Stanislav Yaroshevskiy, flute, and Lev Terskov, piano, in the Musical Gallery of Novosibirsk State Philarmonic Society's Philharmonic Chamber Hall (one of ten halls in which the Society holds its concerts):
We hope you have enjoyed your Concert at Home.
