This concert features the relatively unusual but very mellow and sonorous instrumental 

       combination of two clarinets, two horns and two bassoons. Beethoven’s effervescent

       Sextet  Op. 76 and Mozart’s sublime Serenade in E flat K. 375 are teamed with a

       characterful  20^th Century work by the Hungarian composer Matyas Seiber,  which is

       described by Donal Hurley  in the Edinburgh  Review as ‘quite scrumptious: warmly

       lyrical,  sometimes  pastoral, with some influences from jazz rhythm and a lot of

       influences  from Hungarian folk music.’
