Welcome to the BAFS Concert Season
Winter 2018 / 2019

We’re thrilled to be bringing some of this country’s most exciting musicians to Banstead
this season, from solo virtuosi - pianist Ashley Fripp and violinist Emmanuel Bach - to
chamber ensembles with major reputations, the London Bridge Trio and the Castalian
Quartet.

Superb music-making in the pleasantly intimate space and acoustic of the Community Hall
is guaranteed, and with programmes centred on a roll-call of such composers as Bach,
Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Chopin, Schumann, Brahms and Elgar, there is much to inspire
and delight.

We look forward to seeing you.
Stephen Oliver, Chairman

CASTALIAN QUARTET

The Castalian Quartet, prize-winner at the Banff and Lyon International Chamber Music Competitions, and selected by Young Classical Artists Trust in 2016, is rapidly emerging as an exciting voice on the international chamber music scene, with future engagements that include débuts in Washington, the Lincoln Centre and the Konzerthaus, Vienna. Its programme ranges over three centuries, placing mature Haydn and fiery Brahms on either side of Elgar's autumnal masterpiece from the end of his career.

Their level of ensemble inter-connectedness was truly remarkable. There were times I simply could not believe my ears - Calgary Herald/Banff International Competition
