This is a repeat but I’ll definitely listen to it later. Many thanks. -
The best 'one-stop' site I've found to see whether there are any convenient lunchtime concerts where one happens to be, is this:
The clear date sequence and times set out make it a pretty useful guide. If others agree, maybe it could be stuck somewhere in the 'reference section' ...

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

- Just used it for next week, and it was much easier and more useful than other sources I've attempted recently!

Lincolnshire International Chamber Music Festival: 23 - 26t August
This week's Lunchtime Concerts come from the Lincolnshire International Chamber Music Festival, curated by pianist Ashley Wass. The music was recorded at venues across the county, including Lincoln Assembly Rooms, Gainsborough Old Hall and Caistor Methodist Church. Today's programme features piano music by Liszt, Gershwin's original version of "An American in Paris" for 2 pianos, a chamber version of the overture to Rossini's last opera "William Tell" and a piano Trio by the Armenian composer Arno Babajanian.
Rossini's William Tell Overture played in a piano trio arrangement. The expression ‘domestic music making’ comes to mind. Great fun.
And a bonus: Presented by Christopher Cook.
P.S. Babajanian's Piano Trio in F sharp minor should qualify as Off the Beaten Track.Last edited by doversoul1; 23-08-16, 12:47.Comment

Leicester International Music Festival 2016 : 20 – 23 September
Tom Redmond introduces highlights from this year's Leicester International Music Festival, including chamber music by Elgar, Oliver Knussen, Holst and Finzi.
Lots of interesting looking British music from Tuesday to Friday. There were a couple of charming (maybe a wrong word) pieces by Elgar on today’s concert.

Yes, the piece for Oboe and string trio must surely have been a very early work. Charming, possibly! It was only recently published, so I guess it was not something Elgar would have intended to be made known.Comment

An interesting piano trio concert. I thought Fiona Talkington’s short interview with a member of Atos Trio was very good.
It looks a good week for Lunchtime Concert (that’s because I like piano trio
)

Oxford Lieder Festival is on - this year Schumann-oriented. I went to an lunchtime concert on Monday with soprano, Mhairi Lawson, baritone, Stephan Loges accompanied by Eugene Asti. Holywell Music Room is a great Lieder venue. The enjoyably varied programme on a theme of childhood contained solo songs, duets and a couple of solo piano pieces.Comment
