Whiskey Bar Series - A Night in France
Event description
This stunning program will take you on a journey into the beauty of France through the eyes of Ravel, Poulenc, Francaix and Satie. In Trish Dean’s arrangement of the achingly beautiful clarinet sonata by Poulenc, the string quartet is engaged to create an expanded world of depth and French flavour.
