成人快手 Philharmonic - Live
The 成人快手 Philharmonic Orchestra's Principal Guest Conductor Anja Bihlmaier joins them for music by Neuwirth, Gubaidulina, Gibson and Mayer.
Live from the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester
Presented by Elizabeth Alker
'I have spent my life trying to create a kind of cathedral of sound'. The words of Sofia Gubaidulina, one of the most significant living composers in the world. Her music, deeply spiritual and dramatic, forms the backbone of the 成人快手 Philharmonic's celebration of International Women's Day.
In this programme Anja Bihlmaier makes her Manchester debut as the orchestra's Principal Guest Conductor to explore this kaleidoscopic programme. There's the UK premiere of 'Dreydl' by the genre-defying Olga Neuwirth, alongside music from Sarah Gibson, 'beyond the beyond' is a 成人快手 commission, written as Sarah's joy at becoming a mother was tempered by a progressive and terminal illness. This concert will see the posthumous premiere of the work.
To finish, the F minor Symphony by Emilie Meyer. A trailblazer in her lifetime, Mayer's music earns her a place amongst the greatest composers of the 19th century.
