Chamber Music Series: Changing Moods
The first of the autumn’s chamber music concerts presents a wide range of Finnish and British music for brass quintet and will include two premieres: Chants and Spirituals by Jyrki Linjama and an Overture by Pekka Saarinen. Representing Britain’s rich brass-quintet tradition is a 20th-century classic, Quintet No. 1 by Malcolm Arnold. The other British works are Aria for Philip by Edward Gregson and the colorful, lively Changing Moods by Gordon Jacob.
