Newsletter January 2026 - the Early 2026 concerts

Dear fellow music lover,

Our Early 2026 concert series begins next Sunday - with the Aquinas Piano Trio playing at Rook Lane Chapel on January 18 at 3pm.  Doors open at 2.15 pm for free refreshments.

Described by Gramophone as, ‘spot-on in interpretative instinct’, the Aquinas Piano Trio has established itself as one of Britain’s most sought-after chamber groups.

Following their Wigmore Hall debut in December 2015, Musical Opinion commented, ‘This sold out concert hall was in awe, ecstatic with joy at the final cadence.’

Their list of recordings includes the Saint-Saens Trios, released on Guild in 2015, and their CD of Mendelssohn Trios was Strad Magazine’s Choice of the Month in May 2015: ‘The Aquinas Trio rejoices in these cherishable scores with a symphonic sweep and an insatiable forward momentum … This is an enormously impressive coupling.’

Find out more about the Aquinas Piano Trio here and book your tickets. There may be tickets on the door but best to book before - we don't want you to miss out!

A subscription to all four concerts offers a great discount and this time, you get a free single concert ticket too!

We will be delighted to welcome you.

NB:  Our AGM will be held after the concert on January 25. Everyone who has purchased a subscription to all the concerts in this series or the Autumn 2025 series is automatically a member of Frome Concerts Group and is invited to attend this short, 20 minute meeting. Do stay if you can - we love to hear your feedback.
