Classical Concerts for All - Benenden School

Professional Lunchtime Concerts

Hemsted Park is delighted to invite you to a series of free concerts this Autumn as part of the Benenden School calendar. The season will feature two professional lunchtime recitals, performances by Benenden’s Music Scholars, and a special addition: an open masterclass with internationally renowned singer Louise Winter, who will explore the world of English Song with several Benenden students. Highlights include a performance by the acclaimed virtuoso D’Arcy Trinkwon, who will present a programme of Bach and Liszt on the magnificent organ in Centenary Hall. The series will conclude with a Christmas concert, bringing the events to a festive close.

“D’Arcy Trinkwon is a master of phrasing and the sensitivity of his artistry gives new life to the great Romantic works. Apart from his great awareness of nuances, it is this gifted musician’s mastery of colour that allows him to further illuminate unimagined perspectives in often complex works. Trinkwon earned enthusiastic applause for his technically immaculate playing and his great virtuosity. His splendid, but nevertheless subtle virtuosity combined with considerable artistic integrity to demonstrate that he is one of the really great artists of his genre.” Münich Merkur
