  1. Wind Quintet Op 10 - Pavel Haas
  2. Suite from 'The Cunning Little Vixen' - Leoš Janácek, arranged by Jaroslav Pelikán
  3. String Quartet No 12 in F major, 'American' Op 96 - Antonín Dvorák, arranged for wind quintet by David Walter

The number 4 has special significance in Czech music, with many composers’ dates of birth, death, or signifcant works appearing in years ending with the number 4. This year, 100 years on from the first ‘Year of Czech Music’, we celebrate with the outstanding Alinde Quintet who present a programme of music entirely by Czech composers. Featuring both original works for wind quintet and arrangements of well-known pieces including Dvorák’s American Quartet, these five remarkable players will have you seeking more opportunities to take part in the celebrations.

Join us for a taste of Czech cuisine too — with traditional snacks available at the bar!

Part of the Year of Czech Music 2024. Organised in partnership with the Czech Centre London and supported by the Czech Recovery Plan, Ministry of Culture Czech Republic, European Union, Arts and Theatre Institute, SoundCzech and Vazny zajem Society.
