Soirées at Breinton invite you to their recitals for winter/spring 2025 featuring top class musicians who will inspire us and indulge us with their fantastic programme choices

Look forward to a season of fun, exciting, varied and diverse musical choices, each with its own uniqueness at Soirées at Breinton in 2025.

The new year starts with Variations & Contrasts by Kazakhstan pianist Alim Beisembayev on Saturday, 4th January. He is a current BBC Radio 3 Young Generation Artist who made his debut at the BBC Proms on two days’ notice and is a frequent performer at the Wigmore Hall.

Don’t miss an unrepeatable opportunity to learn about the fascinating composer, Sir William Sterndale Bennett, on the day of the 150th anniversary of his death (February 1st, 1875). Hiroaki Takenouchi, an excellent pianist with vast experience and depth of knowledge, champions the music of Sterndale Bennett. The programme on Saturday, 1st February includes Sterndale Bennett’s most accomplished work, the Piano Sonata in F minor.

Enjoy budding young talent at the Local Young Performers Soirée on Saturday, 15th February. The highly popular annual event this year features Hanhan Qu (flute), Yash Saran (piano), Morwenna Rees (saxophone) and Laura Lin (cello).

Breinton loves piano trios – the dynamic range of sounds and tones brought together by violin, cello and piano. The newly formed Bechsten Trio is comprised of violinist Preya Mitchell, cellist Guy Johnston and pianist Emmanuel Despax, all of them recognised internationally and widely in demand. They will perform Beethoven’s piano trio Ghost and Mendelssohn’s exquisitely beautiful Piano trio in D minor and more on Saturday, 5th March.

Take your seat for an evening of ‘All Debussy’ on Saturday, 5th April when Pascal Roge who has played with major orchestras across the globe brings this programme to Breinton for what promises to be an enthralling evening.

The Breinton Recital Society formed in 2009 and provides top quality concerts by world-class classical music performers. What started out as casual, small musical gatherings, with an audience made up of family, friends and neighbours, soon turned into a significant concert venue for many music enthusiasts, not only from Woking and neighbouring areas, but also more recently from all over UK.

All the musicians are carefully hand-picked for the audience. They are engaged to provide an exciting and interesting programme. The unique ‘recital room’ means that you will be sitting so close to the performers; you can feel and witness all the excitement including their expressions, breathing and humming!

All recitals start at 7.30pm and are held at Breinton, a private home in Heath House Road, Woking GU22 0RD. To book visit Soirees at Breinton
