Their programme opens with the witty interplay of Beethoven's early Horn Sonata, and ends with the opulent exuberance of York Bowen's Horn Sonata, in which we hear clearly why he was dubbed 'the English Rachmaninoff'. The centrepiece of the recital is a substantial new work by Richard, written for Ben and himself in 2022, which pushes the two players to the limits of lyricism and virtuosity.
