Pocket Sinfonia

Pocket Sinfonia is reinterpreting orchestral masterpieces with the fresh spontaneity and intimacy of a chamber group.

Inspired by the transcriptions by Hummel and Clementi of Mozart, Beethoven and Haydn, Pocket Sinfonia has created new arrangements of orchestral works and operas by composers including Mozart, Salieri, Grieg, Prokofiev, Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky. They perform these works alongside pre-existing transcriptions and traditional chamber works on both modern and historical instruments.

“in terms of sheer energy, the palm must go to Pocket Sinfonia

…the little pauses from pianist Emil Duncumb infused it with a real chamber-style rhythmic pliability.”

Ivan Hewett, Daily Telegraph

Adults £18              19-30 years £6        18 and under Free
