Nature, Hope and Beauty
Anna-Maria Helsing conducts the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra in music by Sibelius, Nyman and Lopez, with Jess Gillam (sax), in a concert reflecting on our relationship with nature.
Anna-Maria Helsing conducts the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra in music reflecting on humanity's relationship with the natural world. Jess Gillam is the saxophone soloist in Michael Nyman's Where the Bee Dances; and we hear two symphonies written almost a century apart. Sibelius was known to embrace nature for inspiration; and after the interval (here receiving its UK premiere), Jimmy Lopez Bellido's third symphony 'Altered Landscape' draws upon a collection of photographs held in the Nevada Museum of Art, the lived experience of a global pandemic in 2020 and the vibration of the earth itself.
Presented by Sarah Walker.
Recorded at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London on 12th October.
