Lucy Humphris (trumpet) & Benny Vernon (trombone)
August 22 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Concert
Named as one of Classic FM’s rising stars of 2023, Lucy Humphris is one of the UK’s most innovative and versatile young performers.
Benny Vernon is a member of the multi-award winning trombone quartet, Slide Action and has performed with Aurora and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
This concert will include some of the most dazzling and virtuosic works for brass, including Xenakis’s ‘monster of a piece’, Keren, and Berio’s trombone showpiece, Sequenza V. Lucy will play pieces including Peter Maxwell Davies’ ‘Litany for a Ruined Chapel between sheep and shore’. Maxwell Davies wrote, ‘I imagined the music being played in the ruin, open to the skies, in the vast stillness of that haunted land and seascape.’
