Sir Antonio Pappano (conductor)
Celebrated American mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato is reunited with regular collaborator Sir Antonio Pappano to mark the 150th anniversary of Berlioz鈥檚 death with a performance of the composer鈥檚 sumptuous orchestral song-cycle Les nuits d鈥櫭﹖茅 鈥� a musical journey from springtime love to cruellest loss.
The National Youth Orchestra of the USA undertakes a journey of quite a different kind in Strauss鈥檚 monumental An Alpine Symphony, whose vast orchestral forces and massive soundscapes conjure up the craggy drama of the Bavarian Alps.
The concert opens with 'Occidentalis' a new work, by Benjamin Beckman, one of the NYO-USA鈥檚 two Apprentice Composers.
