The talented wind quintet Ensemble Renard impressed with their vibrant energy and refined musicianship at the Old Picture House on October 16th.

The concert began with Umoja, a rhythmic and exciting piece by contemporary African American Composer Valerie Coleman. Rhythmic intricacy was evident throughout the evening which also included Six Dances from Mikrokosmos by Bartok often heard for Solo piano. The concert finished with the rich sound of Carl Neilsen’s Wind quintet concluding as it does with a lovely choral. A truly memorable evening. SeatonMusic is grateful to The Old Picture House for making their venue available The acoustic was perfect.
This followed our recent piano concert on October 9th also at the Gateway Theatre featuring Exeter based pianist Alex Wilson alongside six exceptionally talented local youngsters, Sophia Liu, Emily Keane, Eric Nan, Nathan Or, Elizabeth Zhao and Ashleigh Turley.
