Programme Note
Bristol Ensemble is joined by the extraordinarily talented violinist Gilles Apap for this celebration of the music of Mozart.
In his first performance in the UK with an orchestra, Gilles Apap performs Mozart’s Violin Concerto No.3. Hailed as a true violinist of the 21st Century by Yehudi Menuhin, Gilles Apap is a classical violinist who has also become widely known for his remarkable ability to integrate a variety of musical genres. David Ogden conducts a performance of Mozart’s Requiem, one of the most powerful and poignant choral works.
