Tim Horton looks forward to the next instalment of his Chopin cycle for Music in the Round, including the performance taking place at Sheffield’s Crucible Playhouse on Friday 2nd December.
Having embarked on the cycle in November last year, Tim has now reached the third programme in his six-concert cycle focused on the music of Frédéric François Chopin, which he is performing in four different locations for Music in the Round. The programme features Chopin’s Two Nocturnes Op. 27, Three Mazurkas Op. 59, and Sonata No. 3 in B minor Op. 58, as well as music by Robert Schumann and Karlheinz Stockhausen.
Tim has already performed this programme once for Music in the Round – in Barnsley on 30th September – and will be giving three more performances in three days at the beginning of December. Either side of his appearance at the Crucible Playhouse, he will be taking the same programme to The Junction, Goole, on Thursday 1st December and to Cast, Doncaster, on Saturday 3rd December.
The concert in Sheffield on 2nd December will also feature a pre-concert talk, given jointly by Tim Horton and Tom McKinney — BBC Radio 3 presenter, classical guitarist and Music in the Round’s Programme Manager.
