Team of Pianists presents C & C Rigg Bequest Classic Music in Historic Venues 2025 at Labassa (photo above by Anthony Basheer).

And Then There Were Four! is a unique double recital in the National Trust’s lavish 19th century mansion Labassa. Experience the opulent architectural features and impressive interiors of this historic house as you enjoy a feast of piano music, featuring all four partners of the Team of Pianists, with two contrasting 45 minute recitals in the one afternoon. This year's Labassa event celebrates Kevin Suherman, brilliant younger pianist and protégé of the late Max Cooke OAM, joining the Team of Pianists as a partner!

Darryl Coote, Robert Chamberlain, Rohan Murray and Kevin Suherman perform solo piano music from Brahms to Beethoven, Ravel to Ronald Stevenson and much more in both the Reception Room and the Music Room. Each magnificently restored space seats only 40 people, thus each recital will be performed twice; after interval the audience will swap rooms to hear their second piano recital. Both rooms are at opposite corners of the ground floor, separated by doors and the entrance hall, so each audience will not be disturbed by sound from the other recital.
