Et exspecto

ET EXSPECTO (And I wait) is the name of a co-production between the Malmö Academy of Music wind and percussion instruments, and the Karlskrona Navy Brass Band. Together they form a symphonic orchestra of some 60 musicians, which allows for a repertoire that is very seldom performed because of its grand orchestral size. The aim is to offer an opportunity to thousands of concert-goers to listen to the rarely played works for grand brass bands: Olivier Messiaen: Et Exspecto resurrectionem mortuorum and Hector Berlioz: Grande Symphonie funebre et triomphale.
