THERE is a chance to experience one of Germany's finest chamber ensembles when Chamber Philharmonia Cologne takes its tour to Dorchester.
They will perform at St Mary's Church in the county town on Sunday, August 27 at 7.30pm.
Chamber Philharmonia Cologne gives around 300 concerts a year around the globe and listeners throughout the world look forward to a musical encounter with our exceptionally talented musicians.
The ensemble was founded in Cologne. The city is famous throughout the world for its University of Music and its musical and instrumental teaching. Generations of musicians have been trained here for many decades who, in terms of their musicality, are said to be unparalleled around the world.
The Chamber Philharmonia Cologne is at home all over the world. Their tours regularly take them to New Zealand, Australia, Spain, Great Britain, Ireland and many other countries - and of course to Germany.
The multifaceted composition of the ensemble provides every member of the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne with the opportunity to perform as a soloist.
The permanently expanding repertoire of the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne consists primarily of hand-picked pieces. The programme includes a mixture of popular and unknown works from a wide variety of musical epochs.
This sees familiar greats like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Vivaldi in dialogue with works from people such as Sergei Prokofieff through to the “King of Tango” Astor Piazzolla.
The programme will include works from Antonio Vivaldi and Four Seasons through to W.A. Mozart, Peter Tchaikovsky and Niccolo Paganini.
