2022 Hay Festival – Dvořák Plus performed by the Mithras Piano Trio

Sarah Walker presents Dvořák Plus performed by the Mithras Piano Trio at the 2022 Hay Festival, including works by Shulamit Ran and Dvořák.

Sarah Walker presents Dvořák Plus, with music performed by the Mithras Piano Trio, recorded at St Mary's Church, Hay-on-Wye, during the 2022 Hay Festival. Their programme features the Israeli-American composer, Shulamit Ran. She’s a recipient of the Pulitzer Prize, and her Soliloquy, with its distinctly Middle-Eastern flavour, was composed in 1997. This is followed by Dvořák’s Piano Trio No 3, composed over one hundred years earlier in 1883. A four movement work, it’s akin to other rather dramatic works he composed in the same period including his Hussite Overture and Symphony No 7. Dvořák himself took part in the premiere.
