Clarinet Quintet: Brahms and more...
Ensemble 360's clarinettist Robert Plane takes centre stage in this programme of rhapsodic Brahms and bravura Dohnányi.
The concert opens with Brahms' autumnal quintet full of subtle turns between languid themes, playful conversation and wistful melodies. Dohnányi’s unusually scored sextet brings together piano, clarinet, horn, violin, viola and cello to create a dramatic and sassy piece that draws on the influences of Brahms, waltzes and dance-like jazz.
