From the venerable halls of Trafalgar Square's Academy of St. Martin in the Fields comes the institution's formidable Wind Ensemble. This quintet, each member at the top of their craft, presents a sophisticated and varied program celebrating the versatility of wind instruments. A foursome of 19th- and 20th-century works opens the program, from the turbulent lyricism of Poulenc to the vibrant neo-classicism of Francaix. Mozart's timeless Quintet for Winds and Piano, from a composer who famously adored both the clarinet and the horn, ties up the program with an effortlessly intricate bow. These musicians carry the Academy's signature intellectual musicality to the Dumbarton stage for this fascinating program.
