The first concert of Nottingham Philharmonic Orchestra's season.
The concert starts with the cool grooves of Dancing to an Orange Drummer by Vanessa Lann. It is inspired by her experience of moving to the Netherlands and adapting to a new culture. The piece features two contrasting musical elements: simple brass melodies and a repetitive rhythmic pattern, which eventually merge and harmonise. It was originally written for a Dutch ensemble and later adapted for the Boston Pops Orchestra.
The Piano Concerto No 2 by Dmitri Shostakovich was composed in 1957 for the 19th birthday of his son Maxim, who premiered the piece during his graduation concert at Moscow Conservatory. We are delighted to welcome back Benjamin Powell as our soloist for this brilliant work.
The concert concludes with the vast drama of Ein Heldenleben - A Hero's Life, by Richard Strauss, where our leader Clare Bhabra takes on the soloist role which represents Strauss's wife.
