Welsh Festivals: Beethoven and Rachmaninov
Beethoven's String Quartet No 3 in D, Op 18, played by the Marmen Quartet and Freddy Kempf performs all Rachmaninov Etudes Tableaux, Op 39, at two of Wales's summer festivals.
In today's roundup from three of Wales' summer music festivals Christopher Cook returns to the historic market town of Machynlleth, where a packed audience in the Tabernacle was treated to the Marmen Quartet and Beethoven's nod to Haydn in the third of the Opus 18 series of quartets. After that it's a final visit to the North Wales International Music Festival and St. Asaph Cathedral, where some figurative fireworks were lit, as Freddy Kempf put his stamp on Rachmaninov's virtuosic second set of Etudes Tableaux.
