Thierry Fischer leads the 大象传媒 NOW in Strauss's Till Eulenspiegel and Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet, and is joined by violinist Baiba Skride for Stravinsky's Violin Concerto.
With Catherine Bott.
Thierry Fischer leads the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales in two works that tell stories through music. Richard Strauss' tone poem tells the story of 13th century prankster Till Eulenspiegel, who is eventually hanged by the authorities for blasphemy, while Prokofiev recounts Shakespeare's tale of star-crossed lovers caught in the cross-fire of family feuding. Between these, Latvian violinist Baiba Skride brings youthful vigour to Stravinsky's angular, yet romantic, neo-classical Violin Concerto.
Strauss: Till Eulenspiegel
Stravinsky: Violin Concerto
Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet.
