Description

Stephen Goss’s Theorbo Concerto was commissioned by Matthew Wadsworth with funds from the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, the North York Moors Chamber Music Festival, and Arts Council England

 

The first performance took place on 11th July 2018 as part of the Third Altamira Hong Kong International Guitar Symposium. The Scottish Chamber Orchestra toured the piece in the second half of July. The first English performance took place at the North York Moors Chamber Music Festival on 18th August 2018. The first performance of the version for theorbo and string quartet was given by Matthew Wadsworth and the Fitzwilliam String Quartet at the Fishguard Festival on 22nd July 2019.

 

With thanks to Jamie Walton, Adrian Walter, and Hanson Yao for co-commissioning the work and for organising the first performances. Thanks also to Max Hattwich for creating the tablature part for the solo theorbo part. 

I would like to give special thanks Matthew Wadsworth for his tireless work in collaboration during this unique project. It was quite a journey for both of us.
