In addition, three young juniors, oboe player Satake Masato, clarinetist Terunuma Yumeki, and bassoonist Ouchi Shusuke, will introduce the charms and highlights of the piece!

☆What kind of person is Suzuki?
"It's very human and passionate, and that comes through in the music."

☆What are the highlights of Mozart?
"From his lessons, I can see that he loves the classics and has strong ideas. I think you'll be able to experience the true essence of Benda-san (Suzuki's nickname) in his bassoon concerto. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of performance he will produce."

☆ Also pay attention to the overture to "The Marriage of Figaro"!
"At the beginning of the concert, we will play the Overture to The Marriage of Figaro, also by Mozart, and the bassoon plays a major role in it. Please pay attention to that as well!"

Satake, Terunuma, and Ouchi also perform as Trio Cravates.

Please look forward to their performance! Watch the video here　https://youtu.be/3fd1ZB3eHv4
