This evening's concert begins and ends with two works inspired by the sea: Ravel's portrait of a fishing boat on the high seas, and David Matthews's A Vision of the Sea. Premiered by the 成人快手 Philharmonic at this year's Proms, it was inspired by Shelley's poetry, the pull of the tide on the Kent coast and an evocation of sunrise. The 成人快手 Philharmonic is joined by Mar铆a Espada to perform Turina's Canto a Sevilla - his setting of poems by Jos茅 Mu帽oz San Rom谩n. After the interval Martin Roscoe will be the piano soloist in another work in which Turina pays homage to his native Andalusia, his Rapsod铆a sinf贸nica.
