About the Concert

The wind players of the Dresden Philharmonic lead through various sound worlds: Richard Dubugnon's "Frenglish Suite" charmingly combines French elegance and British wit. Erkki-Sven Tüür's "Architectonics I," on the other hand, is a modern sound experiment - like an exciting architectural journey through music. György Orbán's Quintet impresses with rhythmic drive and Hungarian temperament, while James MacMillan's "Untold" touches with its intensity and emotionality. The conclusion is Carl Nielsen's Quintet, a masterpiece full of warmth, lightness, and typical Nordic melancholy.
