Orsino Ensemble

From Wigmore Hall, the Orsino Ensemble play Britten's Sextet, Reicha's Quintet and Janáček's Mládí (Youth).

The Orsino Ensemble is made up of leading wind players and gave its debut performance at the Aldeburgh Festival in 2018. Janáček’s nostalgic celebration of youth is set against Britten’s little-known movement of 1930, and the most famous of the wind quintets by the highly original, Czech-born Anton Reicha.
