BEETHOVEN SEPTET
BEETHOVEN SEPTET
Tuesday 12th November, 8pm, Hall Two
Beethoven’ s celebrated Septet for winds didn’ t just take the composer’ s writing to a new level; it helped make his name in Vienna. In this inventive and colourful piece there is, according to musicologist Peter Holman,“ grandeur, intimacy, virtuosity and informality”. Wind soloists of Northern Sinfonia invite you into the Septet’ s alluring twist and turns in this concert, after playing similarly engaging and celebrated chamber works by August Klughardt and Benjamin Britten.
