This concert of playful music for wind quintet, performed by members of Ensemble 360, promises to transport you to an English meadow, the Danish countryside, and a sultry New York summer.
A staple of the wind repertoire, Nielsen’s Quintet was inspired by his fellow musicians and reflects the character of each instrument, playfully hinting at friendships and chatter between the players. Sally Beamish’s The Naming of Birds draws on the natural world as inspiration, while Barber’s Summer Music evokes a languid summer’s day in this programme full of melodious twittering and jaunty dance tunes.
