Meera Priyanka Raja & Dominic Doutney
Cellist Meera Priyanka Raja and pianist Dominic Doutney unite for a varied programme, from Fanny Mendelssohn to music drawing on Indian ragas and talas.
Meera Priyanka Raja cello
Dominic Doutney piano
Fanny Mendelssohn Fantasia in G minor for cello and piano
John Mayer Prabhanda
Brahms Sonata for piano & cello in E minor, Op.38
A Musician’s Company Young Artist and a regular performer with the Chineke! Orchestra, British-Indian cellist Meera Priyanka Raja is joined by award-winning pianist Dominic Doutney
Anglo-Indian composer John Mayer’s Prabhanda, drawing upon traditional Indian ragas and talas, is framed by a short but impassioned Fantasia by Felix Mendelssohn’s equally talented sister Fanny, and by the sonata in which the 30-year-old Brahms staked his place in the classical mainstream, not least by quoting Bach in its fugal finale.
We have another fantastic cellist, Lucinda Chua, performing a contemporary programme at All Saints on 11 May, 7.30pm. Learn more and book here.
