Once again, the beauty of Turku Castle is utilized in a rare chance to experience original 19th century chamber music, composed for a brass ensemble and performed on period instruments for the first time in Finland since the 19th century. The repertoire consists of pieces composed and arranged during the Romantic period and includes a piece by composer J.F.V. Bellon thought to be the first ever piece written for a brass quintet.
