Live from Wigmore Hall, the London Conchord Ensemble plays Poulenc, Mozart and Beethoven.

Live from London's Wigmore Hall, the London Conchord Ensemble plays music for piano and wind instruments by Poulenc and Beethoven - and a novelty by Mozart.

Live from London's Wigmore Hall the London Conchord Ensemble plays music for piano and wind instruments by Poulenc and Beethoven - and a novelty by Mozart originally composed for Glass Harmonica.

Poulenc's Sextet is one of his most outgoing and cheerful pieces. Beethoven's Quintet is an early work that gives the horn-player a good work-out. Mozart's Adagio and Rondo was written for a chamber group that included a novelty instrument that is basically a set of tuned wine-glasses! 


Presented by Fiona Talkington.

Poulenc: Sextet for piano and wind
Mozart: Adagio and Rondo in C minor K617
