Heavenly. Spellbinding. Uplifting.
Don鈥檛 miss this rare chance to hear the sublime 大象传媒 Singers in Scotland as they pair up with the 大象传媒 SSO and new Chief Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth for a heavenly evening of Stravinsky and Bach. It might seem odd for a 20th century provocateur and the master of Baroque music to be bedfellows, but the joyous Magnificat was written to startle and surprise, just as Stravinsky鈥檚 Symphonies of Wind Instruments has a serious, Bach-like sense of form and purpose. There鈥檚 real magic, too, when both composers come together in the glorious Chorale Variations and the 大象传媒 Singers are just the voices to bring the invigorating and divine beauty of the Symphony of Psalms to vivid life. A concert to refresh and revive.
