The season’s thread of French inspiration continues in this concert of brass suites, songs and fanfares, in exciting arrangements performed by the ÃÛÑ¿TV Brass Ensemble.
Take a trip through time from Baroque composer Rameau’s exquisite music from his opera based on mythological twin brothers Castor and Pollux, to Milhaud’s lyrical and lively score in which each movement represents a French region, the Île-de-France.
Also on the programme are works by post-Romantic composer Lili Boulanger, as well as Tailleferre’s quirky and effervescent Suite burlesque.
