Lin Jiang (horn) & Benjamin Martin (piano)

Lin Jiang is one of Australia’s most sought after horn soloists, considered to be the most exciting young instrumentalist of his generation - “Lin Jiang is “One of the most impressive horn players I have ever heard” says Barry Tuckwell

Lin Jiang has toured Japan as a soloist and performed numerous times with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, and Orchestra Victoria

Diverse and very attractive programme of virtuoso music for horn, from Schumann’s Adagio and Allegro – regarded as being unplayable for 100 years – to contemporary pieces

Includes music of a more personal nature by horn player/conductor/composers Esa-Pekka Salonen and Gunther Schuller

Features Poulenc’s seldom performed Elégie for the doyen of horn virtuosi, Dennis Brain

Also featured are transcriptions which are some of Lin Jiang’s personal showpieces such as the Bach, Ketting and Huang works. Huang’s Encore, My Good Sir, was especially written for him

Associate artist Benjamin Martin, a graduate of the Julliard School, is a fine solo pianist and composer in his own right, has received numerous international awards and is a champion of much 20th Century music, in particular Berio and Ligeti

The Nash Ensemble

'Entrancing. It's hard to select the choicest treasures from this jewel box of Poulenc's most witty and vivacious, hauntingly melodic and touchingly heartfelt music, especially when it is played with such effervescence and devotion as here. The two masterpieces are the Sextet for Piano and Winds (1932) and the delectable "Mozartian" Trio for Piano, Oboe and Bassoon, played with dashing elan and soulful lyricism by the pianist Ian Brown and the Nash's brilliant wind principals. Richard Watkins's long-breathed account of the moving Elégie in memoriam Dennis Brain (1957) and Paul Watkins's noble-toned playing of the Cello Sonata (1940/48) are exceptional. But there is rapture, elation, zany high spirits in all of this music, dazzlingly played by the Nash Ensemble. Buy, buy, buy!' (The Sunday Times)
