We're delighted to welcome back Aaron Akugbo, who gave such a sensational lunchtime recital in 2024. He brings his ensemble, Connaught Brass, who are quickly making a name for themselves as a fresh talent in the chamber music world.
Having already made their debut at the Lucerne Festival and London’s Wigmore Hall, the ensemble’s ability to manipulate and unify sound earned them many significant prizes internationally.
Vibrant, spirited and bold, Connaught Brass place emphasis on their friendship with one another to showcase their individual musical personalities within a unique collective sound.
