Performers

Drake Gritton	Cor anglais
Benjamin Powell	Piano

The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra’s Drake Gritton takes the cor anglais out of the orchestra and brings it into the spotlight. He’ll perform a core piece of cor anglais repertoire by Hindemith and Antonio Pasculli’s Fantasia– a beautiful work that took inspiration from Verdi’s Un ballo in maschera. Charles Koechlin felt the cor anglais ‘voice’ was a perfect arrangement of his own song, and the sprightly Pastoral from Elliott Carter shows the agile side of this lesser heard member of the wind family.
