This lively program highlights the wind quintet as a centerpiece of chamber music, akin to the string quartet in tonal balance, depth, and versatility. Enhanced by piano and string collaborations, these ensembles create a variety of rich, colorful soundscapes. In addition to familiar faces, renowned German clarinetist Sebastian Manz makes a Music@Menlo debut, alongside pianist Sahun Sam Hong.
