Wind Quintets: Past to Present

Date & Time
Thu, Jan 23, 2025, 18:30
A wind quintet is like a musical paintbox – just a handful of instruments, but the possibilities are limitless.Well, that’s what Mozart thought anyway: he believed his Piano and Wind Quintet was the best thing he ever wrote, and believe us, you’re about to hear why. But that’s just part of a concert crammed with energy, wit and wonder – whether it’s Paul Hindemith, partying hard in jazz-age Berlin or Valerie Coleman, unleashing raw creative fire in the 21st-century USA.Generously supported by TIOC Foundation

Workshop: Klassiko Wind Instruments

Sat, Apr 20, 2024, 14:00
Elbphilharmonie, Kaistudio 2 (Hamburg)
Some of them gleam all golden, while others look really weird: the wind instruments in an orchestra differ not only in appearance, but in sound as well. The trumpet, the trombone, the clarinet, and instruments that don’t belong to a symphony orchestra: they are all presented here and participants can try them out.

Tragedy to Triumph

Sat, Apr 5, 2025, 19:30
Royal Festival Hall (London)
Vladimir Jurowski (Conductor), Vilde Frang (Violin)
Schubert’s unstoppable Ninth Symphony is known as ‘the Great’ – and with Vladimir Jurowski bringing all his insight and imagination, you’ll hear why. For Vilde Frang, ‘music is the noblest form of communication, a constant interaction’ – and that generous philosophy, combined with her luminous, deeply expressive sound, has made this remarkable Norwegian violinist a real favourite with British audiences. Tonight, she explores the special poetry of Schumann’s only violin concerto: the tender heart of a concert that begins with Beethoven’s drama-fuelled Coriolan Overture, and ends with the wide-open spaces and pure, sunlit energy of Schubert’s unstoppable Ninth Symphony. It’s known as ‘the Great’ – and with LPO Conductor Emeritus Vladimir Jurowski bringing all his insight and imagination, you’ll hear why. *Please note change of programme from originally advertised.
