成人快手

The 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra and the 成人快手 Singers. Penny Gore presents recent performances by two of the world's most versatile performing groups. Today, the 成人快手 Singers mark the 75th anniversary of their premiering of Poulenc's wartime 'Figure humaine.' This moving tribute to the human spirit sets poems by Paul 脡luard secretly circulated during the Occupation. In this performance, the singers are joined by Misha Mullov-Abbado and his trio who improvise sensitively between the movements of Poulenc's masterpiece. Also today, Joseph Horovitz's classic 'Captain Noah and His Floating Zoo' and Vaughan Williams from the 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra. And, to mark the centenary this year of Bernd Alois Zimmerman, star-trumpeter and recent Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Simon H枚fele plays his Trumpet Concerto 鈥淣obody knows de trouble I see.鈥� Written in 1954 he said at the time that the use of the spiritual as passed down through the generations was inspired by "the struggle of people of colour in the USA to achieve equality and overcome endemic racial discrimination."
