Brussels Muzieque continues its season with “Mozartiade”, a programme that marks an important milestone for the ensemble: our very first concert featuring the oboe and English horn.
The evening opens with Johann Christian Bach’s Oboe Quartet in B-flat major, W.B60, a refined and elegant work that perfectly reflects the galant style of the late 18th century and its direct influence on Mozart. This is followed by a true rarity: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Adagio for English horn and string trio, K. Anh. 94, a lyrical and intimate piece that gives the English horn a uniquely warm and expressive voice, seldom heard in chamber music.
At the centre of the programme stands Franz Schubert’s String Trio in B-flat major, D. 471, a youthful yet remarkably confident work that bridges classical clarity and early Romantic depth. The concert concludes with Mozart’s radiant Oboe Quartet in F major, KV 370, one of the absolute masterpieces of the oboe repertoire, combining operatic lyricism with virtuosic brilliance.
Oboist and English horn player Bram Nolf joins Karen Su (violin), Monika Mlynarczyk (viola), and Eduardo Tonietto (cello) for an evening that celebrates dialogue, colour, and elegance—while opening a new sonic chapter in Brussels Muzieque’s chamber music journey.
