Connaught Brass to perform at Saffron Hall

September 28, 2023

Connaught Brass

Connaught Brass are due to perform at Essex concert hall Saffron Hall at 3pm on Saturday 7 October.

From the delicate intimacy of chamber music to a rich toned power reminiscent of a full brass band, this virtuosic and versatile British brass quintet realise the full potential of a richly diverse spectrum of music.

They are making waves at home and abroad; after prestige appearances at the Lucerne Festival and the Wigmore Hall they return with a characteristically bold and vibrant programme, from folk-tinged miniatures from Northern Europe to the lush Romanticism of the African-American Florence Price.

Programme

Mogens Andresen Prelude & Reinlendere from 3 Norwegian Dances
Arr. Steven Verhelst Suite from Pulcinella 2.0
Witold Lutosławski Mini Overture
Florence Price arr. Robyn Blair Adoration
Victor Ewald Quintet No.2 Op.6

A “thrilling young ensemble at the start of what is sure to be a major international career” (Great Birmingham Brass Fest), Connaught Brass are making a name for themselves as a fresh talent in the chamber music world.
