  1. Partita in C, for wind ensemble Op 76 - Franz Krommer
  2. Wind Octet in E flat Op 103 - Ludwig van Beethoven
  3. Symphony No 8 in F Op 93 - Ludwig van Beethoven, arranged for wind ensemble by Alessandro Bombonati

For this concert which offers a fresh take on Beethoven’s writing, clarinettist Julian Bliss has hand-picked an outstanding group of soloists to form the Bliss Wind Ensemble. The concert opens with a work by a contemporary of Beethoven, Franz Krommer, best known for his witty and irrepressible music for wind instruments. This is paired with Beethoven’s Octet, a light and subtle early work (despite its opus number) which shows the influence of his teacher Haydn. The concert closes with an arrangement of the great Eighth Symphony; radical in form, yet full of joy and playful humour.
