Twelve overlooked chamber works by British composers have been
chosen to receive performances as part of the Encore project by the
Royal Philharmonic Society and BBC Radio 3. The twelve works were
chosen from nearly 70 pieces nominated by artists, publishers and
programmers.
The pieces selected include Anthony Payne's String Quartet no.1,
which will receive its second performance 23 years after its
premiere. The project will also showcase quartets by Philip
Cashian, David Matthews, Giles Swayne and Hugh Wood. All the Encore
performances will be broadcast on Radio 3, starting with the
performance of the Payne quartet by the Tippett Quartet at the
Spitalfields Music Summer Festival on 23 June.
