The recital will include three unique pieces:
- Quintet for Piano and Winds in E flat major, K. 452 — Mozart’s Quintet for Piano and Winds, K. 452 was written during his prime. The piece features a concert like quality while being written for a small chamber group.
- Sextet for Wind Quintet and Piano in C Major — Poulenc’s Sextet for Wind Quintet and Piano in C Major is one of his most popular works. This is the only piece that will feature all the performers in a three-movement 15-minute work was written in 1932 and revised in 1939.
- Quintet for Piano and Winds in E flat major, op. 16 — Beethoven’s Quintet for Piano and Winds in E Flat Major, op. 16 was written when he was asserting his style and dominance as a composer.
