Sunday night at “The Wig” to see this concert by the Chagall Trio, peppered with readings from Marc Chagall’s autobiography delivered by my old schoolmate, Samuel West.
We heard:
- Dmitri Shostakovich – Piano Trio No 2 in E Minor, Op 67
- Philip Grange – Homage to Chagall
- Igor Stravinsky – Rag-time for Eleven Instruments
- Aaron Copland – Vitebsk – Study on a Jewish Theme
Janie is partial to a bit of Chagall, visually, and is fascinated by Chagall’s life story, so the whole idea seemed to tick a lot of boxes for us. It was indeed a super concert that pleased us.
