As a musician’s instrumental proficiency develops, so too does their artistic taste and temperament. Each ANAM musician’s recital is a snapshot in time – simultaneously summarising their year of training and revealing glimpses of their future selves. What music excites them? What do they want to communicate? How does their art help them understand the world better? Hear what the next generation of virtuosi have to say, and how, in the 2026 ANAM Recital series.
Scenes and Hopes
"The tone of the bassoon is so companionable, so delightfully talkative, so attuned for every pure soul, that
until the Day of Judgement, the bassoon can never be dispensed with." - C. F. D. Schubart
This recital explores the bassoon as a depiction of the human voice, from devotional songs of worship to tunes in blues. At last, Quintet Evergreen come together to celebrate friendship through Schumann's 'Waldszenen'.
