On 5 November 2014 Beethoven Hall at the Bolshoi Theatre will host the presentation of the Bolshoi Wind Quintet’s CD Classics, Romanticism, Avant-garde.
The album is already available to hear on our website and will later appear as a gift edition. Recording took longer than expected and brought some serious challenges, but the music is ready. On 5 November we will be delighted to present it live.
At the time of writing, a few tickets are still available at the Bolshoi box office. Konstantin Shimarev will conduct Edison Denisov’s Quintet. Pyotr Pospelov will introduce the album and host the concert.
