Nailsworth – Einaudi meets Glass

Philip Glass Violin Concerto No.1 (arrangement for strings and piano)
Ludovico Einuadi Seven Days Walking

Roger Huckle violin

The esteemed composer and pianist Ludovico Einaudi took inspiration from winter hiking in the Italian Alps to create the beautiful, elegant and evocative music of Seven Days Walking. It is paired with a special arrangement of Philip Glass’s Violin Concerto, for strings and piano. Penned for his father, the 1987 work is one of Glass’s most popular. It builds slowly to the final movement, rising at a relentless pace and, just as it is about to peak, circles back to where the concerto began. Tea and cakes served at 4pm.
