Exotic and colourful music, full of captivating rhythms and ear-catching melodies is the essence of Resonance Ensemble’s second concert for 2023.

Danzón features works from Armenia, England, France, Argentina and Mexico in a programme that totally annihilates any idea that twentieth century music is unappealing, hard to listen to, or obscure:

  • Aram Khachaturian - Masquerade Suite
  • Alberto Ginastera - Four Dances from Estancia
  • Benjamin Britten - Simple Symphony
  • Darius Milhaud - Scaramouche for saxophone and orchestra
  • Arturo Márquez - Danzón No. 2
