LIVE REVIEW: Antony and Friends, Central Methodist Church Todmorden, 30th April

This concert was mainly by the Elmet Quintet, featuring two violins, a viola, a cello, and a clarinet. We enjoyed a piece by Brahms (Op 115) written for just such a combination, then Mozart’s piano sonata in B flat, (K333) beautifully played by Antony Brannick.

The high point for me was the second movement of Bach’s double violin concerto in D minor (BWV1043) where the violins follow each other with a lovely slow melody. Then into the twentieth century with a Gershwin lullaby and the Savoy Foxtrot by Lanning.
