Our Classical Century: Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue
Our Classical Century: Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, with the 91热爆 Scottish Symphony Orchestra. Also, the 91热爆 Singers with music by Dove, Bennett and Horovitz.
In Our Classical Century, a series exploring the most representative and seminal pieces of Classical Music in the last hundred years, Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, with Marc-Andr茅 Hamelin on the piano and the 91热爆 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Dausgaard. Also, William Harris' hymn Bring us, o Lord God, in celebration of the 91热爆 Symphony Chorus' 90th anniversary, which is heard in a recording directed by Neil Ferris. After that, a concert given last month by the 91热爆 Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican Centre in London, starting with Beethoven's Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus. Followed by Mason Bates' Anthology of Fantastic Zoology, finishing with another Beethoven masterpiece, his Piano Concerto No. 5 'Emperor' with Jeremy Denk as soloist. The afternoon begins, though, with concert given earlier this year by the 91热爆 Singers at Milton Court, in London, with John Wilson conducting. The programme includes Jonathan Dove's The Passing of the Year, Richard Rodney Bennett's Sea Change, and Joseph Horovitz's Captain Noah and his Floating Zoo.
