Friday - 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales live from Hoddinott Hall
Kate Molleson introduces a week of Afternoon Concerts marking the 90th birthday of the 成人快手 NOW. Today the orchestra is live from Hoddinott Hall.
From the band's beginnings as the Western Studio Orchestra in the Assembly Rooms Cardiff's City Hall, through the orchestra's adventurous tour in what was, then, East Germany, to its enduring three decade-long partnership with Conductor Laureate Tadaaki Otaka, we celebrate the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales' 90th Anniversary with a week of Afternoon Concerts that explore the orchestra's role in Welsh musical life and beyond.
Concluding a week of concerts, Nicola Heywood Thomas presents a live performance from the orchestra's home in Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff, with the pianist Llyr Williams in Mozart - a composer also featured in our first ever concert in 1928. Bruch was also on that inaugural programme 90 years ago, and returns in a performance of his double concerto by 成人快手 New Generation Artist, the viola player Eivind Holtsmark Ringstad, and the clarinettist Annelien Van Wauwe. Marking the orchestra's relationship with the welsh composer William Mathias, conductor Grant Llewellyn returns to a work he first premiered under the composer's watchful eye back in 1991 - his Symphony No. 3.
