Early Music Vancouver: Moonlit Mozart with Les Délices

0
Advertisement / Publicité

In late-18th century Vienna, wind bands known as “Harmoniemusik” offered an effective – and colorful – means of presenting music in virtually any setting. Whether performing nocturnes or serenades, dance music, or even operatic or symphonic reductions, an ensemble of eight woodwinds could cover most – if not all – bases. Soaring melodies were often split between first oboe and first clarinet, inner parts were covered by other winds and horns, bassoons would alternate between tenor solos and bustling bass lines, and a double bass often provided reinforcement on the low end. For Moonlit Mozart, acclaimed oboist and Les Délices Artistic Director, Debra Nagy, brings together today’s finest period-instrument woodwind players for an “undeniably uplifting” all-Mozart program that includes original 18th-century arrangements of selections from The Magic Flute and Don Giovanni, plus Mozart’s transcendent Serenade in C minor (K388).
