Performance NotesBBC NOW and Principal Conductor Ryan Bancroft venture through the musical looking-glass in a programme spanning almost 200 years.

Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte takes a Haydn string quartet as the starting point for a kaleidoscopic musical journey through time. It’s a musical bridge back to the world of Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto, whose exploratory Romantic energy in turn propels us forwards to Mahler’s Symphony No. 4

Infused with a love of nature and featuring a heart-rending slow movement, it concludes with a beguiling child’s-eye view of heaven featuring Miah Persson as the soloist.
