Description
Important: This is a voucher, not a ticket. Purchase the voucher first, then use it on a third-party site to buy your ticket. Additional fees may apply (see details in the pricing information section below).
The Concert
Elusive dreams, a soaring symphony, plus Thomas Adès conducts French pianist Bertrand Chamayou in his own vibrant evocation of the Creation.
The Music
Per Nørgård’s Dream Play is a mesmerising exploration of the nature of reconciliation. Described by the composer as a ‘tournament of a dream’, the piece brings contrasting musical ideas together in ‘fondest embraces’. It’s a remarkable show of how disparate elements can unite in magical synthesis.
Thomas Adès’ piano concerto In Seven Days charts the story of the Creation in seven kaleidoscopic movements. Sibelius’ Fifth, perhaps the most iconic of his seven symphonies, begins with the seed of a haunting horn call. From there, tenderness optimism rule right up to the final crashing chords.
