Jenkinson Frith Duo (cello & piano)

In another Hellens/Espressivo collaboration, the superb Jenkinson Frith Duo – Richard Jenkinson (cello) and Benjamin Frith (piano) – will give a concert in Hellens Great Barn on Saturday 20th November. A member of the Dante Quartet and former Principal Cello of the CBSO, Richard is one of Britain’s most outstanding cellists, a quite exceptional musician who brings out every facet of the cello’s incredible range of colours and emotions. Benjamin is an internationally-acclaimed pianist who has appeared with many of the world’s finest orchestras but who, here, with Richard, explores his love of chamber music. He is a member of the celebrated Gould Piano Trio. The programme comprises three great cello sonatas, Kodaly’s Cello Sonata Op 4, Beethoven’s Cello Sonata No 3 in A Op 69 and Rachmaninov’s Cello Sonata in G minor Op 19.
