Sir Harrison Birtwistle at Kings Place

Birmingham Contemporary Music Group is celebrating its 25th anniversary this season, and as it does so it is marking the anniversary of Benjamin Britten’s birth. BCMG is touring a programme of Britten’s early compositions, the second stop of which was at Turner Sims in Southampton.John Woolrich, BCMG Artist-in-Association, was introduced as a “master programmer” by the Turner Sims representative.

Un concierto complejo, de círculos y espirales, de reenvíos hermenéuticos, pero también de cesuras no indiferentes; un programa que está pensado con atención y esfuerzo conceptuales y con el que se confirmaron las capacidades de adaptación y la sana curiosidad por el repertorio contemporáneo de la ONE y de su director.

Alongside works by Bernstein and Copland, conductor David Robertson and pianist Nicolas Hodges give the US premiere of Jolas's cheeky concerto bTunes.

This final concert of the BBCSO’s Total Immersion day dedicated to György Ligeti, proved to be something a revelation, both in terms of the variety of the music and the quality of the performances.

Mit Steven Isserlis und Nicolas Hodges zeigt die Britten Sinfonia in Amsterdam ein modernes und leichtfüßiges Konzertprogramm.
