As a musician’s instrumental proficiency develops, so too does their artistic taste and temperament. Each ANAM musician’s recital is a snapshot in time – simultaneously summarising their year of training and revealing glimpses of their future selves. What music excites them? What do they want to communicate? How does their art help them understand the world better? Hear what the next generation of virtuosi have to say, and how, in the 2025 ANAM Recital series.
In 2025 the ANAM Set is back. Musicians in their 3rd year of training present a specially commissioned work as part of their recital program.
Ernst, Bhat, Pärt, Korngold
“The program begins with Ernst’s Polyphonic Etude No. 6, titled The Last Rose of Summer — a work that is both incredibly technically demanding and deeply musically rewarding. I’m also excited to explore Aditya Bhat’s Translation Machine for amplified solo violin, which is full of vibrant and unusual violin techniques.
The program continues with Pärt’s minimalistic Fratres, and concludes with Korngold’s brilliant Violin Concerto in D major — a dazzling work with unmistakable cinematic flair.
I’m thrilled to be performing such a diverse program — each work presents its own challenges and offers something deeply moving.” — Louise Turnbull
