Britten Sinfonia

The great Danish composer Carl Nielsen’s fondness for wind instruments relates closely to his love of nature. He was inspired to write his Wind Quintet after hearing Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante for four winds; likewise, Michael Berkeley turned to past models for his Re-Inventions, based on the famous two-part Inventions of JS Bach.

The programme includes the London première of Uncanny Vale, a new work by Patrick John Jones, the winner of OPUS2014, Britten Sinfonia and Wigmore Hall’s open call for submissions from unpublished UK composers.
