In Mahler's Ninth Symphony there is a section in the first movement that Alban Berg asserted was a "vision of the hereafter."
Vaughan Williams wrote his "Fantasia" in 1910 with a premiere later that same year; the Walton Violin Concerto dates from 1938-39 and had it's premeiere in Cleveland with the dedicatee Heifetz as soloist, Rodzinski conducting.
Alson on the program tonight strongly emotive music by Shostakiovch: his 7th Symphony.
More from the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra series, including music by Ravel, Scriabin and Prokofiev.
One of those Concertos for Piano and Orchestra is by Mozart (his 20th) and one by Prokofiev (his 3rd)....
The Beethoven Opus 103 Octet for Two Oboes, Two Clarinets, Two Bassoons, and Two Horns used to be heard more frequently; perhaps it's because it's not as easy to get 8 players of the proper instrumetnation together at the same time? Tune in tonight at 7:00 for this musical monument.
It's been said that "The night-time is the right time", and that's the case tonight, with a "night" themed program.
Tonight the less-often-heard complete ballet music of Tchaikovy's "Nutcracker" is heard.
Should be a 'hot' broadcast [pun intended!] as there's 'fiery' music on tonight's "Evening Concert".
Seen the movie "The Omen"? The music that's used in that movie comes from Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana". Hear the work in its entirety and original format tonight.
