| 10 Apr 2025 | IMS Prussia Cove at St Michael’s Mount | 00:35:40 | |
Every September during the IMS Prussia Cove Open Chamber Music seminars, we perform concerts in local churches and venues around West Cornwall. The concerts mark the end of each week of the Seminar, and they are also an important way for us to take our music out to the Cornish community and beyond. One of the most stunning venues we perform in, is the chapel on St Michael’s Mount, the tidal island which sits majestically off the coast of Marazion, Cornwall. In today’s episode we are delighted to bring you a ‘day in the life’ of IMS as we perform one of our concerts on the Mount. This episode was recorded on location on Saturday 25th September 2021, when Steven Isserlis and eight other IMS musicians performed in the chapel on the mount. The music was chosen to match the dramatic location. We hope this gives you a flavour of the special place St. Michael’s Mount and Cornwall is for the IMS and our work.
