Now in their second score of years making music together, described by The
Gramophone as “a dazzling husband and wife team” and by International Record
Review as “a British institution in the best sense of the word”, leading
British piano duo Goldstone and Clemmow consists of internationally known artists
ANTHONY GOLDSTONE and CAROLINE CLEMMOW. One of Britain’s most respected As a duo their extremely diverse activities in two-piano and duet recitals
and double concertos have taken them all over the British Isles as well as to
Europe, the Middle East and the U.S.A., their four visits there in five years
being rewarded with standing ovations. Their highly praised commercial They have made many London appearances, including the Alkan Festival, one of
the numerous festivals in which they have featured. Their B.B.C. broadcasts
have often included first hearings of unjustly neglected works, demonstrating
their enterprising repertoire, mixing famous masterpieces and fascinating
rarities, which they frequently unearth themselves, into absorbing and highly They presented the complete duets of Mozart for the bicentenary (1991);
inspired by the success of this venture they decided to take on a much greater
challenge - to perform the vast quantity of wonderful music written by Schubert
specifically for four hands at one piano. This they first did in 1993 (and have
since repeated on three occasions) in a mammoth cycle of seven concerts,
which, in its completeness, including works not found in the collected edition, its
researched spoken introductions and its original programme format, must
surely have been a world first. The world-famous Schubert authority Professor Brian
Newbould wrote in The Musical Times of this cycle: “It was an occasion, or
rather seven occasions, for adding immeasurably to one’s understanding of Goldstone and Clemmow have gained a special reputation for their refreshing, enthusiastic approach to concert-giving, including - where appropriate - informal yet informative spoken introductions, and they attach an extremely high value to the warm rapport they create with their audiences. |
