The Sakuntala Trio is a London based string trio playing on raw gut and period bows/instruments at historical pitch. Together with renowned fortepianist and pedagogue Alasdair Beatson, they are launching a series of concerts in diverse venues, from South East London to Hull. Repertoire will include works from their critically acclaimed disc of Schubert and Purcell, as well as the complete Mozart piano quartets and some lesser known gems by composers who have been neglected because of race or gender, such as the Fanny Mendelssohn Piano Quartet and sonatas for violin and keyboard by Chevalier de Saint George.
