Reviews the incredible violinist thomas bowes .. . The Herald 3 Dec2001. The violin Concerto by Eleanor Alberga ..was given http://www.thomasbowes.com/Pages/reviews6.htm
Extractions: * Click photo above for link to review * Birmingham Post November 2003 "Brahms' Violin Concerto brought a tremendous soloist to the fore: Thomas Bowes, a player of unflashy platform deportment, easy-appearing technique (even in the finale's gruesome multiple stopping), his 350-year-old instrument projected a strong yet sweet tone, remarkably even throughout the registers." Oxford Times June 13 2003 "......These two [cello, Raphael Wallfisch] alerted audience response like true stars........ the approach was unerringly sustained, both soloists almost in telepathic touch...." Bristol Evening Post 21 October 2002 "The often aggressive sounds of Britten's Violin Concerto had guest soloist Thomas Bowes bobbing and weaving musically and at times physically like a boxer trapped in a corner. His command of the rapidly changing testing passages never wavered, opening up the work clearly for our inspection."

Extractions: Contact: EMAIL WEBSITE Widely acknowledged as one of the UK's leading virtuosi, Thomas Bowes began learning the violin with Lee Ken Kok at the age of 7, but it wasn't until he was 17 and had begun to study with the renowned Hungarian pedagogue Bela Katona, that he realised music had become his true vocation, and his chosen career. Passion and integrity, without extramusical gimmicks, are fundamental to Tom's playing. Leading recent audiences and critics to describe him as "just awesome.". "In everything he played, Bowes revealed an exacting and deeply felt musicianship." After graduating from Trinity College of Music, Thomas became the founder leader of the Maggini String Quartet,then concertmaster of the London Mozart Players, with whom he made his BBC Proms debut under the direction of Jane Glover. This acclaimed leadership resulted in numerous invitations to guest lead some of the UK's greatest orchestras. These include the London Symphony Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, London Sinfonietta and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, working closely with the late Sir George Solti, Sir Colin Davis, Michael Tilson Thomas, Joseph Swensen and Kent Nagano. As a soloist, concert highlights include a performance of Szymanowski's 2nd Violin Concerto with Takuo Yuasa and the Ulster Orchestra, followed by a specially commissioned recording of this work for the BBC 1998 Proms season. In 1999 Thomas made his debut with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, giving the world premiere of John Metcalf's Violin Concerto "Paradise Haunts..". Last season saw performances of Mozart and Tchaikovsky concertos with the Moscow Chamber Orchestra during its tours of The United States of America and again with them at New York's Town Hall. Early in 2001 he gave 2 performances of the Elgar Violin Concerto in San Francisco and Montana, leaving critics struggling for superlatives and audiences ".in rapt silence" ".. 900 listeners leapt to their feet in (a) show of admiration..."
Extractions: Eleanor Alberga and Thomas Bowes! Remember their names, because long after the Oak Ridge Civic Music Association can no longer afford them, you'll be hearing about this phenomenal husband-and wife duo. They make up Double Exposure, the violin/piano team that left its audience aghast Saturday night at the Pollard Auditorium. It must be the extraterrestrial Hale-Bopp. How else can we explain the sudden spate of extraordinary musical performances? After the fabulous rendering of the Berlioz "Requiem" two weeks ago by the Oak Ridge Symphony and Chorus, one assumed that ORCMA's remaining season concerts could only go downhill. Not so! Subscribers to the Chamber Music series were riveted by Double Exposure. The musical intimacy, the superior technique and the fresh and free-wheeling rhythmic aplomb of these two musicians give them an edge over just about everybody, and they clearly are the best violin/piano duo most of us have ever heard. The concert was made possible by the support of the Cyrus Feldman Memorial Trust. Feldman's widow and children were on hand to experience the exhilaration. We can think of no person more deserving of such a top standard memorial program than the late Cy Feldman, who characteristically would have summed up this history-making concert in one succinct colorful word.

Hereford String Orchestra - CONCERT - July 2003 We are delighted to welcome back thomas bowes as our soloist tonight. to some extentwith Joachim, though he did not adopt all the violinist s suggestions. http://freespace.virgin.net/ljmayes.mal/hso/july.htm
Extractions: Hereford String Orchestra Leominster Priory, 16 th July 2003 This year is the bicentenary of the birth of Hector Berlioz. To mark the occasion we shall be playing one of his popular opera overtures. Hector BERLIOZ (1803-1869) Symphonie fantastique Berlioz composed a wide range of orchestral and choral works, including three operas, at least 29 choral works, many songs, concert overtures, large orchestral pieces and compositions for other musical groups. The opera , based on Shakespeare's Much ado about nothing Although the opera is now rarely performed, the overture remains a brilliant and popular item of the concert repertoire. Johannes BRAHMS (1833-1897) Violin Concerto in D Op 77 Allegro non troppo Adagio Allegro giocoso, ma non troppo We are delighted to welcome back Thomas Bowes as our soloist tonight. Brahms' Violin Concerto was written for his lifelong friend Joseph Joachim. It was composed at a summer retreat at Portschach on the Wothersee. There Brahms also wrote his mellow and lyrical Second Symphony, in the same key of D major. In writing this concerto, Brahms collaborated to some extent with Joachim, though he did not adopt all the violinist's suggestions. He did, however, leave Joachim to compose his own cadenza in the first movement. The first movement opens with an unusually long tutti section, which is eventually broken into by the flourishing entry of the solo violin. Only later does the violin restate and embellish the opening themes. Dark tones make themselves felt in the development section, but overall, the mood is one of confident tranquillity.
