As part of the Oxford Festival of the Arts, our Music students present a mixed recital of works for the chamber music ensemble, the musical salon. These were, at the time, daring pieces that encoded challenges to the societal norms and cultural practices of its time, and through their pioneering vision signalled the cusp of upcoming change.
Rémy Ballot and OUO Solo Players - Bruckner: String Quintet, Mathilde Kralik: Nonet
Following their successful chamber ensemble programme of Mozart and Strauss last January, violinist and conductor Rémy Ballot is joined by a chamber ensemble drawn from members of OUO to give a concert that presents Bruckner’s resplendent String Quintet alongside the work of his student, Mathilde Kralik. Kralik’s Nonet is scored for the rare combination of clarinet, bassoon, two horns, string quartet and piano.
