Weymouth Lunchtime Chamber Concerts is delighted to welcome James Lisney to Weymouth for the first time, to perform Schubert's second set of Impromptus and Liszt transcriptions of Schubert songs, including the much loved Ständchen.
“I have nothing but praise for James Lisney’s piano playing; he combines velvet touch and wide range of colour with complete understanding of phrasing and dynamic shading. This is someone who can really give the mechanical box of wires and wood a singing soul.” The Telegraph

Launched in 2002 by concert pianist and Weymouth resident Duncan Honeybourne, Weymouth Lunchtime Chamber Concerts presents high-quality chamber music in the heart of Weymouth and offers a platform for musical partnerships with friends and colleagues. The concerts also give young musicians, often recent graduates from conservatoire or university, valuable performing experience to a friendly, loyal audience.
Our programmes are varied and imaginative, mixing well known works with lesser-known repertoire and composers, and all concerts take place in the attractive, welcoming surroundings of St Mary’s Church, Weymouth, where we are very fortunate to have use of an excellent Yamaha grand piano maintained by Weymouth Pianos Ltd.
