Willem van Otterloo: Serenade

The autumn concert with KMH’s large brass ensemble is like a chocolate box filled with different autumn pralines. There is both sweet and a little salty. 

They will be playing some works for the first time in Stockholm, such as Willem van Otterloo’s magnificent Serenade, but also music by Henry Purcell and Sergey Prokofiev, which they are happy to return to. The performers want you to recognize yourself but also try a few new “pralines”.
