Ella returns home to Sheffield to perform as soloist with Ensemble 360 as part of Music in the Round’s May Festival.

MOZART Ach, ich fühl’s! (from The Magic Flute) (5’)
MOZART String Quintet No.4 in G minor K516 (36′)
TRAD. Se solen sjunker (Swedish folksong) (3′)
SCHUBERT Piano Trio No.2 in E flat (44′) 

Music in the Round is delighted to welcome Robin Ireland back to the Crucible, a venue he knows so well from his years as violist with the Lindsay String Quartet.  

Robin will join Ensemble 360 for one of Mozart’s finest chamber works, his String Quintet in G minor. It’s a work that’s rich in drama, the hallmark of one of the greatest opera composers, and a delicate aria from Mozart’s The Magic Flute will lead straight into the Quintet. 

Schubert’s Second Piano Trio was one of the final pieces he completed before his death at the young age of 31. It’s a work of incredible emotional depth, with its most famous melody, frequently used in soundtracks for film and television, inspired by a traditional Swedish folksong.
