PLAY! Festival 2026

Escape with us for an afternoon of sun-drenched flute chamber music - Flute en vacances.

This concert features a dazzling array of our finest flautists, in a programme that evokes the warmth, light, and languor of a holiday in the French countryside. The journey begins with Yuko Uebayashi's luminous Au delà du temps, a shimmering meditation on time and memory. Next, all four flautists unite for Eugène Bozza's Jour d'été à la montagne, a playful, breathless portrait of a summer day in the Alps. To close, experience the elegant charm of Andreas Romberg's Duet No. 3, whose lyrical Andante and spirited finale offer a perfect send-off.

Come relax, listen closely, and let the flute take you on vacation.
