The Ryedale Festival returns to Slingsby after last year’s sell-out, this time bringing us leading instrumentalists playing Mozart in different moods: a violin sonata with a melancholy air, the playful and lyrical sonata for bassoon and cello, and an extrovert piano trio overflowing with ideas. This late-night concert also features Beethoven’s homage to a genius: an irresistible set of variations on a famous theme from Mozart’s Magic Flute.
