Synopsis

Journey across musical worlds with PhilClarinets in a programme that reimagines classical favourites through the rich and vibrant colours of the clarinet ensemble. From the dramatic flair of Bizet’s Carmen Overture and the sparkling wit of Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro, to the infectious energy of Strauss’ Die Fledermaus, this performance celebrates opera and orchestral classics with fresh new character. Audiences can also look forward to jazz-infused highlights such as Rhapsody in Blue, and pieces that blend the Baroque style of toccata with the rhythms of tango. Expect virtuosity, variety and an engaging musical experience that bridges tradition with the modern.
