鈥楥onvinced that his love is spurned, the artist poisons himself with opium鈥︹�� Berlioz鈥檚 Symphonie fantastique is the musical head-trip to end all head-trips, a no-holds-barred phantasmagoria for an enormous orchestra.
And that鈥檚 not even the half of it, in a concert that features the massed voices of the 大象传媒 Symphony Chorus in Poulenc鈥檚 barnstorming Gloria, and which opens with Camille P茅pin鈥檚 visionary, ravishing Les Eaux c茅lestes. Sky gods, lovers, a celestial river and the cowherd of the stars: it鈥檚 hard to imagine a better counterpart for Berlioz鈥檚 spectacular sonic imagination than the UK premiere of this symphonic retelling of an ancient Chinese myth. Prepare to be transported鈥�.
Recorded at the Barbican on Friday 19th April 2024. Presented by Martin Handley
