Story

Just before lockdown Constance Chow very kindly agreed to play Elgar’s own piano arrangement of the Enigma Variations in Kingston United Reformed Church on 23 July. Sadly it is still not feasible to give a live performance in the church, but we’re going to try something a bit different which we feel sure you will enjoy.

Constance is going to video a performance of the Enigma Variations on her own grand piano, and this will be streamed ‘live’ on YouTube at 12.30pm on 23 July. From then on you will be able to watch and listen wherever and whenever you wish! Instead of a retiring collection, Constance has suggested that donations be made to Kingston Churches Action on Homelessness, a charity that has been doing vital work to protect and support the most vulnerable in our community in Kingston upon Thames. Please give generously through this JustGiving page.

Though seldom heard nowadays, Elgar’s piano score of ‘Enigma’ (1899) is just as captivating as the orchestral version and reveals many hidden facets of this familiar and much loved work. The video will include a brief introductory talk by Constance, notes about the music, and photos of all the ‘friends pictured within’.

We do hope you will be able to listen in on 23 July via https://youtu.be/dl3mZQbxHRc
