Holistic Sound (Acrostic on Buck Brass Trio)

Bold Mozart, from divertimento voiced,
Unlocks their gleaming instrumental choice,
Contains an integrated theme of ebb and flow;
Kaleidoscopic range of breath that grows

Beyond constraints. In chapel resonance
Reaches the vaulted heights; and stone recess
Acoustics amplify ethereal effect.
Staccato cross-explosive themes are tossed,
Serrated intervals of Anthony Plog,

To fast cadenza, ending quite abrupt.
Recap to Beethoven: these players trust,
Intuitively aspirate in synchrony
Of presto pace, reined in with harmony.


Peter Horsfield 25/8/2017

Inspired by the lunchtime concert performed in the Old Chapel of St. John’s School, Leatherhead, on 24th August 2017, by Richard Buck, trombone; Timothy Ellis, horn; and Daniel Walton, trumpet and flugelhorn.

Our concerts in the chapels of St John's School finish with this week's brass trio concert

Today's concert opens with the fourth of Mozart's five Divertimenti for three basset horns
(a single-reed instrument related to the clarinet family).
In this recording we hear the Ensemble Cœur de Roseau, who are Aki Yamagishi,oboe,
Dawid Jarzynski, clarinet, and Akira Ishikawa, bassoon.
Their performance was recorded in 2016 at a concert in the PaToNa concert hall, Sendai, Japan:

Our recording of Anthony Plog's Trio for Brass comes from the unusual venue of the Council Chamber in Badajoz, a city on the Spanish/Portuguese border, on the main road between their two capital cities.
Mb3 Brass Trio are Sergio Novella, trumpet, Gustavo Castro, horn, and Antonio Lloret, trombone:

Beethoven's Trio in C major Op 87 was written for two oboes and English horn. Here we have the original setting,
with oboes Carlo Romano and Sandro Mastrangeli, and Teresa Vicentini, Enlish horn:

Next week we will return to Leatherhead Methodist Church for a concert entitled
From Bach to Jazz
with pianist Daniel Nicholson. You are welcome to join us at LMC, or here online.

We hope you have enjoyed your Concert at Home
