The Petworth Festival welcomes a quintet from the region’s leading professional ensemble in tandem with their remarkable Artistic Director, pianist Joanna Macgregor. Led by violinist Ruth Rogers, their programme contrasts the baroque splendour of Purcell and Bach with the latter- day masters Arvo Pärt and Astor Piazzolla. The second half is given over to Vaughan Williams’ expressively romantic Piano Quintet, a work that carries his unmistakable signature.
