´óÏó´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra - LIVE

Live from Watford Colosseum, music by Rodrigo, Maconchy and Lutowslawski, the ´óÏó´«Ã½ CO with New Generation Artist Thibaut Garcia and conductor Richard Farnes. With Fiona Talkington.

Live from Watford Colosseum, Fiona Talkington presents the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra performing music by Ravel, Rodrigo, Maconchy & Lutowslawski, with New Generation Artist guitarist Thibaut Garcia & conductor Richard Farnes.
After the live concert, Penny Gore features music recorded by the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra at the EFG London Jazz Festival last month. The programme explores the marvels that are composer/performers and the influence of New York City on jazz. Principal Conductor Bramwell Tovey is the pianist for Pictures in the Smoke, his work inspired by a line from New York-based poet Dorothy Parker. Gordon Hamilton’s piece pays homage to one of New York’s greatest jazz composer/performers, John Coltrane, and Coltrane played with Miles Davis whose album Nefertiti has been arranged for orchestra by Guy Barker. The Frontier by Dave Heath explores a range of musical images based upon feelings on returning from a visit to New York City in 1989.
