Circle of Fifths Wind Quintet / Stratford upon Avon

Posted on by Jeremy Thurlow

On Wednesday 15th October the Circle of Fifths Wind Quintet will give the premiere of a new piece commissioned by the Stratford upon Avon Music Festival, in their concert in the Town Hall at 12.00.

The new piece is called Nesting and explores the energy and drive created by multiplying and overlapping simple calls and cries in all instruments. I’m looking forward to the premiere, which will be an excellent excuse to visit Stratford, a town I’ve never yet been to.

Music by Jeremy Thurlow.
