This concert brings together different approaches to compositions for wind ensembles
to create an ambitious sound experience. Franz Danzi's intention was to establish a preference for the genre among the music lovers of his time. Beethoven's septet (as a chamber music
solitaire) had an involuntary stylistic influence on subsequent generations despite its status as an occasional composition. And in Maurice Ravel's autobiographical sketch there is a note that the homage of the Tombeau is directed "less to Couperin alone than to the French music of the 18th century".
