“Calefax – five extremely gifted Dutch gents who almost made the reed quintet seem the best musical format on the planet.”
– The Times

Dutch wind quintet Calefax returns to YST, bringing to the stage their highly acclaimed virtuosic playing, brilliant arrangements and innovative stage presentation.

Defined as a classical ensemble with a pop mentality, Calefax provides inspiration to young wind players from all over the world who follow in their footsteps. Look forward to an adventurous evening with a programme inspired by 1100 to the present day — including original arrangements and newly commissioned works influenced by world music, jazz and improvisation.
