Live Music: Artistic Temperaments Festival: Pocket Sinfonia
Friday 9th February 2024, 7:30pm
Travel back in time with Pocket Sinfonia and experience the atmosphere of a 19th-century drawing room party.
Orchestral-scale music, usually only heard in much larger settings, was adapted to the intimacy of a chamber music performance. This was made possible via various transcriptions by composers of the 19th century, including Hummel.
Pocket Sinfonia have since also made their own arrangements, using both modern and period instruments. They apply spontaneity and vigour to creations that are not merely a smaller version of a great piece, but something new and artistic in its own right. It also allows the poor pianist to finally get to play some symphonies!
