New Music Brighton Concert By Talkestra Plays Harrex, Mills, Finnissey, Graebner

New Music Brighton put on a concert Thursday evening of contemporary classical works written by local composers in Brighton. Here a picture (left) of Michael Finnissey and Barry Mills who had pieces played by Talkestra , directed by the excellent Steve Dummer (clarinet). Barry's evocative Piano Trio was played as was Patrick Harrex's beautifully-shaped 'Colloquy'. Ed Hughes' Quartet ended the evening. A hard-hitting cello-led piece, Elegy, by Ric Graebner was the highlight for me.
