Composed a century apart, these two works share an intense engagement with the natural and imagined world.
The alluring textures of Lachenmann's virtuosic musique concrète instrumentale – vaulting brass, cross-hatched strings, darting woodwind and splintered metallic percussion – provide a prelude to the climax of The London Residency: a dramatic symphonic epic with Dies Irae plainchant, pastoral dance, teeming fish, a rose, a nightingale, primal light, off-stage brass, transcendent solo voices and a vast choir.
