Carion Wind Quintet

‘These young players are just the best there is,’ says Sir James Galway. No chairs, no music stands, playing from memory, and with every performance exuberantly choreographed, the five members of Carion Wind Quintet make all their performances fresh and unique. In this lunchtime concert at Cardiff's Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, their programme centres around Nielsen's Wind Quintet, a mesmerising kaleidoscope of colours that's deservedly become a cornerstone of wind repertory. There are some ingenious games courtesy of György Ligeti to begin with; an arrangement by their horn player David Palmquist of Stravinsky's Suite no 2 which exploits the contrasting characters of the wind instruments provides a sparkling finale.
