This spring the Ensemble welcomes back Toby Spence, a member of our extended ‘Ensemble family’ in a programme that is dear to our hearts. Artistic Director, Jonathan Morton, grew up in Belgium listening to the music of Jacques Brel, and when Toby suggested performing some of his songs, he leapt at the idea. Brel’s Songs, accompanied by accordion, piano, percussion and strings, are complemented by Satie’s "delicious and shocking" Parade, and Kurt Schwertsik’s tango-inspired Adieu Satie, written for strings and accordion.
