Belfast International Arts Festival 2023 (3/4)

From the 2023 Belfast International Arts Festival, Elisabeth Brauss plays Schumann's Carnaval, and the Chaos Quartet perform Fanny Hensel's String Quartet in E flat.

John Toal introduces the third of four recitals featuring the German pianist Elisabeth Brauss and friends.

They were recorded as part of the 2023 Belfast International Arts Festival in St. Mark’s Church, Dundela, in east Belfast: the church in which CW Lewis was baptised and where his grandfather was rector.

Elisabeth Brauss graduated from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 3’s New Generation Artist Scheme in 2021 and is widely respected for her collaborative music-making. Today she’s joined by the Chaos Quartet, part of the Scheme’s most recent cohort, for performances of works by Schumann and Fanny Hensel – Felix Mendelssohn’s sister.
