World Premieres for Black History Month
Unique concert recordings marking Black History Month as well as more from Concerto Copenhagen from Lammermuir and 成人快手 NOW performing Strauss's Don Quixote.
Fiona Talkington showcases unique concert recordings from home and abroad, including the award-winning Danish Baroque orchestra Concerto Copenhagen at the recent Lammermuir Festival.
Elsewhere, Classical Live's orchestra-in-focus the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales performs 'Don Quixote' by Richard Strauss: the swashbuckling tone-poem inspired by the eponymous novel by Miguel de Cervantes. Scored for cello, viola and orchestra, the work is written as a theme and variations: Don Quixote represented by the cello.
The programme starts with two world premieres from the 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra: one by jazz pianist Pete Letanka, and another by jazz saxophonist Jason Yarde. Later, the orchestra performs a selection of Eleanor Alberga鈥檚 'Dances from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs', each movement capturing a unique moment from the beloved tale.
