Ensemble Renard (wind instruments)
St Martin-in-the-Fields, WC2N 4JJ , [Venue Details]Escape from the clamour of the city and join Ensemble Renard for a recital of music that captures the symbiotic nature of humanity’s relationship to the natural world.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, famed for writing the most touching and human of music, frequently wrote pieces for automated instruments such as his Andante K.616, to which we give a new life in an arrangement for wind quintet.
Blue Cheese and Olive Oil by Cheryl Frances-Hoad takes inspiration from foods associated with two pillars of 20th-century European musical culture, and George Stevenson’s Les Machines de l’île is a musical description of the wooden creatures that decorate the old dockyard in Nantes, France.
Interspersed between these musical manufacturings, Ensemble Renard present three works that capture the humanity of different folk traditions: Judith Weir’s Mountain Airs is a free adaptation of two Scottish folk tunes; Pavel Haas’s Wind Quintet takes inspiration both from Moravian folk music and Jewish liturgical practice; lastly, Béla Bartók’s Six Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm pulse with celebratory rhythmic vitality.
