This promises to be a night of the sublime and the numinous, in which Messaien’s visionary epic is prefaced with Mozart’s inimitable double concerto for violin and viola, featuring two of Europe’s leading young string players. Messaien’s Eclairs sur l’au-delà or ‘Illuminations on the Beyond’ scored for vast orchestral forces, was his final completed work. Months before his death he spoke of its inspiration: ‘I imagined myself in front of a curtain, in darkness, apprehensive about what lay beyond: Resurrection, Eternity, the other life.’
