MUSIC: Three good reasons to listen to Chichester piano series
The newly-formed Chichester Piano Trio make their debut on Sunday, June 28, at 2.30pm at Christ Church, Chichester, as part of the Music on Sundays series.
Mark Hartt-Palmer (violin), Raymond Greenlees (cello) and Richard Barnes (piano) will perform Trio Sonata in D Op 1 No 13 (GF Handel), Dumky Trio Op 90 (A Dvorak) and Trio in C major Op 87 (J Brahms).
Mark Hartt-Palmer and Richard Barnes already have a well-established violin and piano duo partnership, but this will be the first performance of the Chichester Piano Trio.
Raymond Greenlees is the cellist in the new ensemble. He is a close colleague of Mark Hartt-Palmer in the Chichester Symphony Orchestra, with whom he recently performed Kol Nidrei.
Mark is leader of the Chichester Symphony Orchestra and has performed the Mendelssohn, Dvorak and Elgar violin concertos with the orchestra.
He has also played the newly-discovered concerto by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor in the Chichester Festivities and has given the Canadian premiere of this work.
Mark studied the violin with Samuel Coates and later with Frances Mason.
Richard Barnes gained his early music training as a chorister at Westminster Abbey and later as choral scholar at King's College, Cambridge, where he graduated with an honours degree in music.
Raymond studied with the sub-principal cellist of the BBC Northern Orchestra in Manchester. At the age of 14, he was selected for the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain.
