\n<\/span>The Surrey Mozart Players are delighted to be one of the first orchestras to appear at the brand new Concert Hall at the Menuhin School, which has been praised as one of the most significant new performance spaces to open in Britain in recent years. The hall has been written about in all the London papers, and in BBC Music Magazine and the Gramophone.<\/p>\n

Mozart himself wrote for a \u2018Harmonie\u2019 (a group of wind instruments) in the second act finale of Don Giovanni, and Joseph Triebensee, the son of an oboe player in Emperor Joseph II\u2019s group, arranged items from the opera for this combination.
\n\u00a0
\nBobby Chen, a former pupil at the school, plays one of the composer\u2019s best loved piano concertos, No. 23 in A major.\u00a0 Written in early 1785, and in a radiant key, it displays hints of darker shadows and tragic depths. Chen will be performing on the hall\u2019s brand new Fazioli piano.
\n\u00a0
\nHaydn visited London twice towards the end of his life, and Symphony No. 99 received its first performance on 10th February 1794, six days after his arrival on his second visit.\u00a0 It contains one of the composer\u2019s noblest slow movements and a vivacious finale.
