Roberto Minczuk Music Director

Mozart Serenade No. 10, “Gran Partita”
Brass Work TBD

Among his most beloved works, Mozart’s “Gran Partita” is a cornerstone of works written primarily for woodwinds and brass. Aside from its high standing with audiences, the work is also notable for featuring the basset horn, a member of the clarinet family but pitched a perfect fourth lower than a clarinet, which was a favorite instrument of Mozart’s. Felix Mendelssohn and Richard Strauss would later foster a brief revival for this rare instrument. The Brass will bring festive sounds just in time for the holidays.

Includes Coffee and Donuts!

Get ready to be amazed! A night of Pink Floyd classics and a mind-blowing encore you won't want to miss.
