45. The Mercers’ Company Livery Concert

The Mercers’ Company held its annual Livery Concert on 30 November and invited guests from the Livery and elsewhere. The musicians came from IMS Prussia Cove (located in West Cornwall) where short seminars are held each year for top class and aspiring musicians from all over the world. The Programme included a selection for String Quartet by Dvořák and a Piano Quintet in F minor by Brahms. The musicians joined the Mercers’ hosts and the guests for a buffet supper. My table included the cellist Guy Johnston, who had the nerve-racking job of looking after (and playing) a 1714 cello. A very good evening and thanks to the Mercers’ Company.
