The 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra conducted by Nicholas Carter in Helen Grime's Near Midnight, Strauss's Oboe Concerto with soloist Tom Blomfield and Tchaikovsky's elegiac final symphony.
Near midnight: as a long day closes, the spirit turns to reflection, whether in tranquillity or terror. Helen Grime's nocturnal tone-poem introduces two works from composers facing the ultimate question, in an emotionally-charged 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra debut for the young Australian conductor Nicholas Carter.
The elderly Richard Strauss recaptured the elegant, bittersweet spirit of Mozart in his Oboe Concerto 鈥 and it鈥檒l make a ravishing showcase for the 成人快手SO鈥檚 own principal oboe, Tom Blomfield. Tchaikovsky鈥檚 final symphony couldn鈥檛 be more different: an impassioned musical autobiography, pulsing with great melodies and raw emotion. It should be an overwhelming climax to a concert that begins 鈥 according to Helen Grime - amid the mystery and magic of 鈥渢olling bells, high-spun moon and the indifference of night鈥.
