Mozart’s World in Warwick

Warwick Arts Centre: Butterworth HallGibbet Hill Road, Coventry, West Midlands, CV4 7AL, United Kingdom
Dates/times in London time zone
Wednesday 28 January 202619:30

Mozart's last orchestral work, the Clarinet Concerto, is heard alongside another of his most enduringly popular pieces, the serenade for strings Eine kleine Nachtmusik.

It is no understatement to say that Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto is one of those pieces that changed the history of music. 21st Century audiences are so familiar with the sound of the clarinet – it is inextricably linked with smooth romantic melodies or the iconic opening of Rhapsody in Blue – but when Mozart unveiled the piece its sound would have shocked audiences. This performance aims to recapture that sense of wonder and delight.

Tickets: £23.50 - £45.50
