Bach to the future? Rory Macdonald and Auckland Philharmonia in Bach, Bartók and Mendelssohn

Simon Holden, 4th July

Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra’s “Bach to the Future” promised to be a highlight of their season this year. This orchestra has repeatedly shown its mettle in 20th-century repertoire and had taken part in an absolutely stunning B minor Mass last year. And how appropriate to have a young Scotsman conducting Mendelssohn’s “Scottish” Symphony.
