Conservatory Concert Hall

Prizewinners of the 2023 Concerto Competition feature in this ephemeral programme.

Carion Wind Quintet’s fresh approach to chamber
music has brought acclaimed performances around
the world. The ensemble has received most favourable
critique for their interpretation of Carl Nielsen, Jacques
Ibert, and especially the Six Bagatelles by György Ligeti.
Carion has worked with contemporary composers like
Jeppe Just, Renāte Stivriņa, and Anders Nordentoft, its
innovative and colourful programming being made possible
by Carion’s own horn player, David M.A.P. Palmquist.
Carion holds an Ong Teng Cheong professorship at YST.

Visiting Artist David M.A.P. Palmqvist, french horn player of the Carion Wind quintet, conducts a masterclass with YST horn students.
