Two serenades by Mozart are performed by the RCM Wind Ensemble in a programme that explores the composer through his own music, lively arrangements and new compositions.
The programme opens with the iconic overture from the composer’s witty opera Le nozze di Figaro, arranged for wind ensemble, and continues with two of his Serenades for winds nos 11 and 12. Also featured are contemporary works including Gary Carpenter’s Ein Musikalisches Snookerspiel, based on Mozart’s Musical Dice Game, and new music by RCM alumna Sarah
Jenkins and RCM composer Asher Joyce.
