Saisons
Made up of five eclectic and accomplished musicians, the Aquilon Quintet cultivates an active interest in the great social questions of our time through their artistic output: the fight against climate change with their latest album "Seasons", or indeed the place of women in the world of classical music with their forthcoming show "Oú sont les femmes?/ Where are the women?". To raise awareness of such subjects and to inspire in their listeners an interest in woodwind instruments are two of the main ambitions of the Aquilon Quintet. In 2020 the Aquilon Quintet will celebrate it's 20th year!
