A gourmet of excellent sounds: Kazushi Ono

David Karlin, 18th July

Tokyo-born but with 25 years of conducting in Europe under his belt, Ono talks about Mark-Anthony Turnage's large scale choral work Hibiki, his current work on Prokofiev's The Fiery Angel and future plans.

As a composer, what do you do when you are commissioned a full-length orchestral work to commemorate the anniversary of a renowned concert hall? Do you try to write something celebratory? Not in Mark-Anthony Turnage's case.
