Imagine this. It’s 1805 and Beethoven drops a ground-breaking
symphony dedicated to the hero of his time, Napoleon.
Birtwistle Night’s Black Bird (c.12 mins)
Donghoon Shin Cello Concerto ‘Nachtergebung’ (c.22 mins)
Beethoven Symphony No.3 ‘Eroica’ (c.52 mins)
Jaemin Han cello
Ryan Wigglesworth conductor
With two
explosive chords, Beethoven’s Eroica symphony launched a new era for
music and created a world of limitless sonic potential. It’s revolutionary in
every sense, and for our Chief Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth – a composer himself
– it’s the natural culmination of a concert filled with sounds that stretch the
bounds of possibility. The poetry of Georg Trakl finds a wordless voice in
Donghoon Shin’s wild and wonderful new cello concerto (and the young South
Korean cellist Jaemin Han has been described as “a staggering talent”). The
late Harrison Birtwistle, meanwhile, dives deep into nocturnal melancholy, and
finds both terror and beauty: a potent tribute, in what would have been
Birtwistle’s 90th birthday year.
