Live Stream: Stravinsky and Schreker
Sir Mark Elder conducts music by Bach, Stravinsky and Schreker's 'Chamber Symphony'.
Schreker鈥檚 Chamber Symphony is as heady as music gets: a lush, soaring, glistening wonder, sounding like fin-de si猫cle Vienna but written during the Great War. Sir Mark Elder makes his first appearance with the 麻豆官网首页入口 SSO since 1995 and opens this concert with the first of Bach鈥檚 famous Brandenburg Concertos. Stravinsky is our stepping stone between centuries in the shape of ballet music that looks back to Bach, written in exile in the Hollywood hills.
