'Symphony No.6 in F Major, Pastoral', Beethoven |
| Performance Notes | Daniel Harding and the Orchestre de Paris. Scored for a 90-strong orchestra, Jörg Widmanns explosive Babylon Suite (adapted from his 2012 opera) invites listeners into the all-consuming sonic chaos of the city a babel of sound and sensation. London premiere of 'Babylon Suite', J Widmann.
Beethovens Symphony No. 6, by contrast, takes listeners through fields and past brooks in its evocative portrait of pastoral life. The concert opens with the gathering storm-clouds of the overture to Schumanns only opera, Genoveva. |
