Acclaimed Wind Quintet
The next concert presented by Isle of Arran Music society is at 7.30 pm on 27th February in Brodick Village Hall and features the Atéa Wind Quintet. This internationally acclaimed British ensemble consists of Alena Lugovkina on Flute, Anna Hashimoto on Clarinet, Ashley Myall on Bassoon, Chris Beagles on Horn and Philip Haworth on Oboe. Since their formation in 2009, the Atéa Quintet has performed in some of the finest halls in the world, and they recently became double prize winners at the 2015 Karl Nielsen International Chamber Music Competition in Denmark. Their concert in Brodick will include chamber music from Mozart to Frank Bridge, and the audience will be treated to a performance of the intriguingly named How to avoid Huge Ships by Aaron Holloway-Nahum, commissioned in 2013. Fans of classical music beautifully played are sure to enjoy the evening. Seating will once again be in the popular café-style, at tables and you may bring a bottle. The concert begins at 7.30, and tickets are available on the door, at Inspirations of Arran in Brodick, or online from www.arranevents.com.
