IMS Prussia Cove at St Michael’s Mount

<p style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 12pt;">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.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p> <p style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 12pt;">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.</span></p> <p style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: Arial, sans-serif;

IMS Prussia Cove Podcast – Episode 5 – Open Chamber Music

<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">Artistic Director Steven Isserlis introduces Open Chamber Music, one of IMS Prussia Cove’s biannual seminars. Open Chamber Music began in 1976, four years after the Masterclasses, when founder Sándor Végh invited some of the students to stay on and play chamber music with him. It has since grown into a three-week seminar taking place every September, with more than 120 musicians rehearsing and performing over 60 works of chamber music together, in ensembles that combine younger musicians with more experienced performers.</span></p> <p style="background: white;"><strong><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;
