Programme Note
Concerts for Craswall is delighted to welcome Lumas Winds, one of the most exciting young wind quintets on the British chamber music scene today.
Recently heard live on BBC Radio 3’s In Tune, they were recently awarded the prestigious Dorothy Parkinson Memorial Award, which over the past 45 years has been won by some of the most gifted young musicians of their generation.
Committed ambassadors for wind chamber music, Lumas Winds have performed at leading venues including Wigmore Hall, King’s Place and Snape Maltings. “Really impressive … one to watch” was the verdict of BBC Radio 3’s Record Review.
Their programme brings together music by Holst, Ligeti, Françaix, Bizet and Malcolm Arnold, amongst others, offering a varied showcase of the extraordinary colours and possibilities of the wind quintet.
Lumas Winds are currently featured Artists with the Countess of Munster Recital Scheme and Kirckman Concerts Society, and are Ensemble in Association at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.
Come and hear this remarkable ensemble – live in the heart of Herefordshire countryside.
