Ensemble Cymru Music Concert

Saturday 9th May, 2026

Chris Goodman – clarinét | clarinet

Alanna Pennar-Macfarlane – basŵn | bassoon

Music:

A clarinet and bassoon may sound like an odd couple, but Beethoven didn’t think so. He wrote 3 lively clarinet/bassoon duos in his early twenties, and 130 years later Poulenc composed a hugely popular sonata for the same combination. A host of lively and eclectic pieces complete this entrancing programme.

Cerddoriaeth:

Efallai bod clarinét a basŵn yn swnio fel pâr rhyfedd, ond nid oedd Beethoven yn meddwl hynny. Ysgrifennodd 3 deuawd bywiog i’r cyfuniad hwn yn ei ugeiniau cynnar, a 130 mlynedd yn ddiweddarach cyfansoddodd Poulenc sonata hynod boblogaidd ar gyfer yr un offerynnau. Bydd llu o ddarnau bywiog ac eclectig yn cwblhau’r rhaglen hudolus hon.
