Debussy Sonata for flute, viola and harp
The combination of flute, viola and harp may not be the most familiar trio ensemble, but it is one that certainly lends itself to the rich exploration of colour and harmonies that is typical of Debussy’s output. A deeply expressive curiosity in soundscapes and association with visual art also features in the compositions of Icelandic composer Daníel Bjarnason (2), whose new work features alongside Debussy in this programme.
2.15pm, Foyer of the West Road Concert Hall
