A man in a Hawaiian shirt playing the clarinet in the street.

Rising British clarinettist Mebrakh Haughton-Johnson and award-winning pianist Kumi Matsuo join forces to explore the crossover of tradition and innovation in classical music, weaving clarinet and piano textures with works by a diverse range of composers.

Mebrakh’s virtuosic versatility has carried him from touring Australia with Chineke! to his US solo debut with Springfield Symphony Orchestra, while Kumi’s internationally acclaimed artistry, has seen her perform at Wigmore Hall and Tokyo Opera City Hall.

Join Mebrakh and Kumi for a selection of lyrical sonatas and colourful character pieces for clarinet and piano; from Brahms and Schumann to Debussy and D’Rivera.
