Live from Snape Maltings, Suffolk
The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra strings and harp conducted by Ryan Wigglesworth. Works by Britten, Julian Anderson and Wigglesworth himself, who solos in Mozart's Piano Concert No. 12.
The Snape Maltings Concert Hall reopens its marsh-facing doors for an audience with the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra strings and harp in works by Mozart, Britten and Julian Anderson. Ryan Wigglesworth conducts and is the soloist, directing from the keyboard, in Mozart's predominantly sunny Piano Concerto No 12. Ever an all-rounder on the concert platform, Ryan is also featured as a composer in his Notturno, inspired by a Polish folk song. This concert is dedicated to the late, much-missed Steuart Bedford, conductor, close collaborator with Benjamin Britten, and for many years major musical force at the Aldeburgh Festival.
