KYMI SINFONIETTA WINDS – PLAN B: BARBER & BIZET

Samuel Barber: Summer Music, Op. 31
Georges Bizet: Suite from the opera Carmen (arranged for wind nonet by Andreas N. Tarkmann)

If an August summer day had a soundtrack, this would be it. Barber’s Summer Music paints a landscape where time seems to stand still and the air shimmers with warmth. Bizet’s Carmen sets the atmosphere ablaze with operatic passion. Andreas N. Tarkmann’s witty arrangement for wind nonet offers a fresh perspective on a beloved classic. Sometimes Plan B turns out to be the best option!
