Janáček's Mládí adds contrast to the programme. Composed during a reflective period in Janáček’s life, this wind sextet is a recollection of his youth, infused with astute humor and a classical form. Written during a stay in his birthplace of Hukvaldy, Janáček uses fresh expressions and a quote from his earlier work, March of the Blue Boys, to evoke the spirit of his younger days. The addition of a bass clarinet to the traditional wind quintet lends the piece a unique, rich texture.

Often overshadowed by his more famous B-flat concerto (Piano Concerto No. 27), Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 18 leans towards the entertaining rather than the expressive, offering glimpses of the deeper poignance that would characterize his later works.

Paris in the 1920s experienced one of the most exciting times in its cultural history. Europe was recovering from World War I, and the Parisian intelligentsia demanded, and expected, new approaches to music and other art forms. Tonight's program features works that reflect both the tragedy of the "Great War," as it was called in France, and the general, exhuberant feeling of having to "seize the day" that characterized the decade which followed it.
