Some of Ligeti's greatest works come together for the final concert in the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra's Total Immersion day. Chief Conductor Sakari Oramo and the Orchestra are joined by Grammy Award-winning violinist Augustin Hadelich for the wild, generous invention of the Violin Concerto, while Nicolas Hodges is soloist in the horseplay and dreamy brilliances of the Piano Concerto. The textural, densely patterned experiments of Atmosph猫res (famously used in Kubrick's 2001 A Space Odyssey), Clocks and Clouds (with upper voices of the 大象传媒 Singers), and San Francisco Polyphony complete this wacky programme.
