Hallé oboist Virginia Shaw has a second passion – the Japanese Sho. Made of bamboo pipes, this mouth organ is said to mimic the call of the phoenix – a legendary sound indeed! East meets West in music for oboe and string quartet by Takemitsu, and in pieces for Sho by the late Belgian composer, Wim Henderickx.
This event takes place at Hallé St Peters.
