Libby returns as something of a regular now to East Sussex’s beautiful Etchingham Festival, this time as part of The Wieck Ensemble, comprising some of London’s outstanding young chamber musicians. Tonight’s programme sees two stalwarts of the piano quartet repertoire – Schumann, written for the eponymous Clara Wieck, and Brahms – combined with the less often-performed but devastating Phantasy Quartet of Frank Bridge.
