Hummel Trumpet Concerto in E flat
One of the big successes in the Warwick & Leamington Midsummer Music Festival after lockdown in 2021 was a recital at Holy Trinity Church when Imogen Whitehead played Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto.
Johann Nepomuk Hummel was born in what is now the capital of Slovakia, Bratislava, and he succeeded Haydn at the Court of Esterhazy in 1804 – a year after he completed his Trumpet Concerto. Petr Eben’s major work, Okna, was inspired by the glass windows created by the painter Marc Chagall.
Imogen again teams up with Oliver Hancock, Director of Music at St Mary’s Church in Warwick.
Tea, coffee and cake on sale from 10.30am and straight after the recital.
Generously supported by the Friends of All Saints Music
