Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Wind Ensemble

ABOUT
Join us for an evening of nostalgic works from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Wind Ensemble that reflect on place and memory.
From images of youth to the sounds of treasured homelands, this varied and harmonious programme of chamber pieces explores the ways in which music connects us to the past. Sink into the melodies of Samuel Barber’s lyrical Summer Music, evoking memories of languid days in the sun and hot, expansive evenings. Feel the pulsing rhythms of Janáček’s Mladi (‘Youth’), capturing the energy and curiosity of his childhood. Be transported to the American South through Valerie Coleman’s Red Clay and Mississippi Delta, which weaves together elements of blues, spirituals and folk music to illustrate traditions close to her heart.
These pieces, and more, will open vivid musical snapshots, elevated by the masterful playing of musicians from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
