Symphonic Scenery by the London Schools Symphony Orchestra
London’s premier youth orchestra performs a programme of highly expressive music inspired by scenes and poems.
Lili Boulanger’s impressionistic sound picture of a Spring morning welcomes in Eric Whitacre’s Equus, its soaring melodies punching through the American composers dynamic minimalist portrait of horses. Mythical evocation comes in the form of the Water Goblin in one of Dvořák’s much loved late tone poems. The concert ends with Mussorgsky’s much loved Pictures at an Exhibition in Ravel's popular orchestrated version.
