Music from three centuries and four directions
From Bach's baroque to the overwhelming beauty of the contemporary American Eric Whitacre. From Edward Elgar's modest English dignity to Piazzolla's South American fiery tango passion. And from Albéniz' spicy Spanish sounds to Bruckner's resounding cathedral: the brass section of the Concertgebouw Orchestra feels at home everywhere. Brand new notes sound from their trombone friend Johan de Meij. Warm sounds, virtuosity and crackling energy alternate in this unique concert.
