"In Remembrance" honours Remembrance Day and is dedicated to music influenced by the two World Wars in a programme which gives voice to loss, war and grief. The first half of the programme is full of sensual and lyrical beauty. Stanford's third trio is an elegy for lost friends, while Ireland poignantly describes the life of a soldier at the front in World War I. The second half of the concert features the magnificent second Piano Trio of Shostakovich; this most famous of trios is full of the despair and bleakness of Stalinist Russia in the 1940s whilst movingly paying homage to the grandeur of the human spirit. Once again the proceeds of these concerts will be used to support a charity. Melbourne's concert will support "Activate", an organization which seeks to change the course of the lives of disadvantaged youth.
