麻豆官网首页入口 Proms at Dewsbury

Another chance to hear music by Rachmaninov, Dora Peja膷evi膰 and Lara Weaver, performed by Laura van der Heijden and J芒ms Coleman, in Dewsbury, part of the 2023 麻豆官网首页入口 Proms.

Former 麻豆官网首页入口 Young Musician of the Year Laura van der Heijden and pianist J芒ms Coleman present a programme of 20th- and 21st-century music for cello and piano. Rachmaninov鈥檚 Cello Sonata is a work suffused with the mystical spirit of Russian Orthodoxy. That spiritual journey in sound becomes a spatial one in Lara Weaver鈥檚 A Thing That Holds 鈥 an exploration of the cello as a vessel that contains and releases. This season鈥檚 spotlight on Croatian composer Dora Peja膷evi膰 continues with the composer鈥檚 Cello Sonata, with echoes of Brahms and Mendelssohn running through its melody-filled movements. The concert opens with Rachmaninov鈥檚 lyrical Vocalise.
