Ilan Volkov, conductor
Be here now, they say 鈥� but in 2022, and a world in which threats come as fast as wonders, why would you even want to? The Site of an Investigation is Jennifer Walshe鈥檚 one-woman response. It鈥檚 a massive, multilayered symphonic deep-dive into social media, algorithm madness, streaming playlists and micropollutants 鈥� all in search of a very personal path into the open. Conductor Ilan Volkov never takes the obvious perspective and, after the interval, he conducts Brahms鈥檚 heartfelt A German Requiem: a service of consolation from a composer without conventional religious faith, but with a limitless depth of compassion. An answer, of sorts? Decide for yourself 鈥�
