Hailed in Japan as a legendary and prestigious wind ensemble, their performances—featuring France’s top-tier wind instrumentalists—are a richly colorful display of the ultimate ensemble that every experienced wind musician dreams of. The Paris Garde, which causes a sensation every time it visits Japan, has us eagerly anticipating what kind of performance they will deliver this time.\nRavel’s orchestral arrangement of Mussorgsky’s piano piece *Pictures at an Exhibition*, commissioned by Koussevitzky, remains a piece that every wind instrumentalist aspires to play. Ravel’s astonishing sense of color is due to his masterful spotlighting of the wind instruments. The Paris Garde, the world’s finest wind ensemble, perfectly recreates this piece, delivering a performance even more expressive and brilliant than the original orchestral version.\nFurthermore, you can, of course, enjoy the high-quality virtuosity of Stravinsky’s *The Firebird*.\nA world exists here that leaves wind instrumentalists around the globe utterly spellbound.
