Works by Poulenc, Beethoven and Mozart.
The orchestra performs a work by Poulenc, Beethoven's Septet and Mozart's String Quintet.
Poulenc's brisk stroll along the Seine is paired with Beethoven's breezy Septet in the first of three 30-minute concerts. This set of exhilarating works of chamber music from Southbank Sinfonia concludes with Mozart's String Quintet, which beefs up the standard quartet line-up with an extra viola, adding a richer centre. Mix and match with the two other concerts in the same afternoon to sample something new.
