Work: Pastoral symphony

The maverick Aurora Orchestra returns to the Proms, and doesn't disappoint.

With their appetite for musical diversity and youthful enthusiasm, the six-year-old Aurora Orchestra and their principal conductor, Nicholas Collon, have grand ambitions. With ‘When Doves Cry’ they did not disappoint, showing both their exceptional aptitude for showcasing contemporary music and a promising ability to inject freshness into seminal classical works.

Collon und das Aurora Orchestra lieferten ein farbenreiches Programm mit Sinn und Elan, das wunschgemäß glücklich machte.
