SUMMARY:AMERICANA – GERSHWIN AND BERNSTEIN FOR TRUMPET: Matilda Lloyd & Ensemble 360
DESCRIPTION:HONEGGER Intrada (5’)\nHINDEMITH Concerto for Trumpet & Bassoon [string reduction] (17)’\nBERNSTEIN Sonata for Clarinet and Piano (10’)\nHAYDN Trumpet Concerto [string reduction] (15’)\nCOPLAND Quiet City [string reduction] (10’)\nBEACH Romance (6’)\nGERSHWIN (arr. Morton) Promenade – Walking the Dog (3’)\nGERSHWIN (arr. Morton) Three Preludes (8’) \nWinner of the Young Artist Category in the 2026 Royal Philharmonic Society (RPS) Awards\, star trumpeter Matilda Lloyd joins Ensemble 360 for a sparkling celebration of American music\, alongside some dazzling trumpet classics. Described by BBC Music Magazine as a “trumpeter extraordinaire\,” and celebrated for her impeccable sound\, crystalline phrasing\, and exquisite control\, Matilda Lloyd holds audiences spellbound through virtuosity and expressive power. \nThis brassy concert from Music in the Round celebrates the brilliant sounds of the trumpet and its central place in American chamber music drawing on diverse traditions stretching back to Haydn.  \nCopland’s Quiet City is a portrait of the American night: a solitary walker and a bridge in fog. Beach’s Romance captures the elegance of the Boston salon\, while Gershwin’s Three Preludes and whimsical Promenade encapsulate the moment jazz and European music collided\, and a continent found its unique musical voice.

DESCRIPTION:Saturday 17th October 2026\, Upper Chapel\, Norfolk Street\, Sheffield\nFollowing the success of our first three Come and Sing events in Upper Chapel\, Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus plans to return to this wonderful venue to host another\, this time featuring Brahms’ majestic German Requiem.  Popular with choral singers this includes some wonderful choruses and is sure to attract many visitors\, so grab a ticket as soon as they are available. \nThe  workshop will be led by our fantastic Musical Director Darius Battiwalla. Darius has conducted choral performances with leading orchestras including the Halle\, the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic and Manchester Camerata\, and he has prepared the Chorus for appearances at the Proms and for recordings with the BBC Philharmonic for Chandos.

Despite this impressive record he is a very friendly conductor\, encouragingly supportive and challenging in equal measure – qualities that were much in evidence at our previous Come and Sing events. \nTimings are likely to be: 10.30 start\, registration from 10am\, with the morning session running to 12.30 including a break for tea or coffee and a range of delicious cakes (included in the admission price). \nWe will re-commence at 2pm\, giving time for participants to have lunch in one of the many varied eateries  in the city centre.

SUMMARY:BEETHOVEN & BRAHMS STRING QUARTETS: Opus13
DESCRIPTION:BEETHOVEN String Quartet in D Op.18 No.3 (25’)\nADÈS Arcadiana  (20’)\nBRAHMS String Quartet No.1 in C minor  (35’) \nOpus 13\, the most recent winner of the prestigious Wigmore Hall International String Quartet competition\, makes its Sheffield debut at Music in the Round with a programme of bold and lyrical works.  \nPraised by the judges for “technically superb and emotionally compelling” performances\, the Quartet follows in the footsteps of a glittering roster of past winners\, including the internationally renowned Leonkoro Quartet\, Quartet Van Kuijk and the Takacs Quartet.  \nBeethoven’s first string quartet is a bright\, lyrical and humorous work\, undercut by a deeply affecting slow movement. Indebted to Beethoven’s later work\, Brahms’s String Quartet No.1 is a bold\, passionate piece\, from its striking opening bars to its rapturous conclusion.  \nArcadiana\, the first string quartet by Thomas Adès\, “one of the most accomplished and complete musicians of his generation” (The New York Times) also features\, portraying an evocation of paradise with references to Mozart’s opera The Magic Flute\, the painter Poussin and Greek mythology.
