成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales - Walton, Elgar, John Pickard
Live at 成人快手 Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff, 成人快手 NOW and Martyn Brabbins. Walton: Johannesburg Festival Overture. Elgar: Cello Concerto (with Alban Gerhardt). John Pickard: Symphony No 5.
Live from 成人快手 Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff, Martyn Brabbins conducts the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales in Elgar's ever-popular Cello Concerto with soloist Alban Gerhardt, the composer's passionate outpouring of grief and disillusionment in the wake of the First World War. In contrast, Walton's riotous overture celebrates the 70th anniversary of the founding of Johannesburg, complete with African rhythms. John Pickard's new work is, perhaps surprisingly in the 21st century, still a traditional symphony. It features three sets of timpani spatially separated across the stage, not simply used to create a lot of noise, but to explore melodic lines between the three players.
