Seraphim Trio explores the intersections between Shakespeare, Mendelssohn and Beethoven, alongside a new trio by Australian composer Alan Holley.

Benjamin Martin’s new arrangement of Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream captures Shakespeare at his most effervescent. Beethoven’s ‘Ghost’ Trio, inspired by Macbeth, speaks to the Bard’s more serious side.

The program concludes with Mendelssohn’s dramatic Trio in C minor, in which Beethoven’s influence is everywhere apparent, not least in his signature key.

Unusual beauty and radiance... A sparkly performance full of graciousness, bonhomie and entertainingly witty melodrama.
