Distilled: Mozart & Bartók

Join us for two magnificent chamber works by Mozart, which sit hand-in-hand with Opera North’s production of The Magic Flute, in which wind instruments lead the way.

‘Kegelstatt’, the name given to the Trio for clarinet, viola and piano, can be translated as ‘bowling alley’; could Mozart perhaps have penned it between games? Highlights of the Flute Quartet include a slow second movement in which a beautiful melody tinged with sadness is accompanied by pizzicato strings, before being interrupted by a finale full of sunny high spirits.

Sound Bath with Members of the Orchestra of Opera North

Experience the power of breath and sound as you are guided on a deeply relaxing journey led by Opera North harpist Celine Saout with breathwork by trombonist Blair Sinclair.

A series of gentle, relaxing breathing techniques take you to a calm, meditative state, leaving you with the feeling of a deep, restful sleep. You will then be immersed in a sound bath, receiving the healing frequencies of the harp, Himalayan singing bowls, gong and quartz crystal bowls.
