RIOT! is a dynamic new string trio comprising violinist Adam Summerhayes, violist Carmen Florist, and cellist Toby White.
Their debut performance at St Anne’s in Derby will showcase Beethoven's Trio in G major, Op. 9, No. 1, alongside the world première of Adam's original composition, Unfounded.
Summerhayes, celebrated for his virtuosic performances and innovative compositions, has graced stages from London's Wigmore Hall to New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art (add NYT quote). He currently plays the Ex-Sorantin Stradivarius.
Carmen Flores is a remarkable violist with a deep passion for chamber music. She has been a driving force in creating innovative ways to experience and perform classical music. As a founding member of the acclaimed Villiers Quartet, she has championed British music and made several celebrated recordings on the Resonus, Naxos, Lyrita, and Somm labels. She is the Director of the Nottingham Chamber Music Festival, which celebrates the creative community and chamber music across Nottingham.
White, also a superb soloist and chamber musician, made his Wigmore Hall debut in 2019 and has collaborated with leading ensembles across the UK and Europe. With a multiplicity of prizes, scholarships and awards to their names, they bring consummate musicianship to the stage — as well the capacity for rampant, riotous enjoyment of the joy that is classical music.
Together, they promise an electrifying musical experience - RIOT!
