A focus on the work of the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra. Diepenbrock: Hymnen an die Nacht (with Charlotte Hellekant: mezzo). Bartok: Suite No 1, Op 3.

The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra play two Romantic rarities from around the year 1900 - think Gustav Mahler and Mahler Strauss and you won't be far off. Dutch composer Alphons Diepenbrock, a close friend of Mahler, wrote many works inspired by the nighttime: today his 'Hymns to the Night' are followed by one of the earliest orchestral works by the Hungarian Bela Bartok, composed before he'd grown out of his early obsession with Strauss's orchestral tone poems.
