Radio 3 In Concert - Viennese Whirl

Sarah Connolly joins the 成人快手 Philharmonic and Martyn Brabbins for an evening of music from Vienna.

From Brahms's First Sextet, David Matthews's arrangement of the Andante brings expanded dimension to the piece.

Zemlinsky's Six songs on poems by Maeterlinck are here heard in an arrangement by John Pickard; originally for piano and existing, too, in a version for large orchestra, tonight's performing edition draws inspiration from both to provide an intimate orchestral picture.

A newly minted transcription of Mahler's Kindertotenlieder made by David Matthews especially for this concert sheds new light on this masterpiece and the programme ends with a classic, Schoenberg's First Chamber Symphony - a tour de force of of orchestra colour and virtuosity as seen through the lens of fifteen players.
