JenkinsonFrithDuo-Cropped-315x315

A familiar face to Birmingham audiences, CBSO cellist Richard Jenkinson is joined by his duo partner Benjamin Frith in a performance of Benjamin Britten’s 1961 sonata, a technically demanding work commissioned by Rostropovich, and Frank Bridge’s emotive two-movement sonata, written amid the turbulence of the Great War.

Bridge - Sonata in D
Britten - Sonata in C, Op. 65
