Milwaukee Musaik Concert 2: "Winter Winds"

Event time: 7:30pm, Schwan Hall

Program:

- Franz Krommer: Octet Partita in E-flat major, Op. 79

- Paul Hindemith: Kleine Kammermusik for Wind Quintet, Op. 24 No. 2

- Antonín Dvořák: Serenade in D minor for Winds, Cello and Bass

Dvořák’s slavonic “Wind Serenade”, evocative of the old-world traditions, won him a meeting with Brahms, while Krommer's beautifully balanced wind writing is favorably compared to the serenades of Mozart. Exploring the range and virtuosity of each instrument, Hindemith’s Wind Quintet offers a lean, witty, neo-classical commentary on the wind music tradition.

Come warm up to the rich sonorities of the Musaik Winds!
