Frisson Nonet

A chamber group with the range of an orchestra minus percussion, the nine-member Frisson Nonet is a string quartet with bass, plus a woodwind quintet. The unusual program will include Walter August’s “Octet for Strings and Winds,” Gershwin’s “Three Preludes for Clarinet and Strings,” Martinu’s “Nonet for Strings and Winds” and, for a rousing finale, Ravel’s “Bolero” transcribed for Nonet.
