Gran Partita – Sabine Meyer & Friends
Chamber Music
Saturday, 28 July 2018
7.30 pm, Zweisimmen Church
Wind instruments: a small family… with a lot of heart! Sabine Meyer has often demonstrated just this, such as at the Festival in 2015 when she, together with Emmanuel Pahud and the Gstaad Festival Chamber Orchestra, galvanized the audience with a magnificent “Classical Celebration of Winds”. She is back in 2018 with an exclusively “wind” programme highlighted by Mozart’s “Gran Partita”, a masterpiece rarely performed in concert in which each of the twelve instruments has a soloistic role.
