Simon Trpčeski and friends play Brahms, Shahov and Connesson.

Pianist Simon Trpčeski is joined by members of his Makedonissimo project in chamber music by Brahms, Shahov and Connesson.

A group of international musicians, who have previously worked together on the Makedonissimo (‘very Macedonian’) project, bring to the Wigmore Hall a classic work for piano quartet plus two unusual pieces: a quintet by the UK-resident, Macedonian composer Pande Shahov, born in Skopje in 1973; and an arrangement of a piece by the French composer Guillaume Connesson, born in Paris in 1970.

Live from the Wigmore Hall, London. 

Presented by Martin Handley.
