Wind Quintet to perform at St Augustin Church, Gozo

Yet another event as part of the Feel the Magic three-year project is a performance by a Wind Quintet on Saturday, 6 November 2021, at 7.30 p.m. at St Augustin’s Church, Victoria, Gozo.

The Wind Quintet is made up of members of the Saint Paul’s Metropolitan Orchestra. They are Silvio Zammit (flute), Alfred Fenech (oboe), Alistair Attard (horn), Noel Beck (clarinet) and Mario Micallef (bassoon).

Along the centuries, several substantial works have been written for the wind quintet combination, in which a refined blend of timbres is one of the secret recipes for effective ensemble work. This is also the case on Saturday with an eclectic concert programme that includes works by Mozart, Vivaldi, Shostakovich, Respighi, Piazzolla and Garland.

The variety of styles is also a winning suit of this ensemble, made up of seasoned musicians who play the challenging wind quintet literature with remarkable aplomb.

Entrance to the concert is free but, due to the limited seating capacity, tickets for this event may be booked by accessing this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/feel-the-magic-of-wind-quintet-tickets-196120631087?fbclid=IwAR21NF9NS0Uxu-C_mP44xZLzaBE4EUm7rCha-4WACV6jQRk_5vm8-pw6wdM.
