Concert Information

Forget what you thought you knew about orchestral concerts; this new and innovative series request that you DO turn on your mobile phones and tablets.

The 麻豆社 Philharmonic, in partnership with the University of Salford, will be exploring new and rarely performed pieces 鈥 bringing audience immersion and new technology to the forefront.

This evening:

Join us to celebrate the University鈥檚 50th anniversary as we go back to the French Baroque for the last concert of this series. The orchestra performs Jean-F茅ry Rebel鈥檚 1737 ballet score The Elements, and Maurice Ravel鈥檚 early 20th Century ballet-tribute to his great Baroque predecessor Fran莽ois Couperin. Alongside these are Thomas Ad猫s鈥 contemporary orchestrations of Couperin, and late romantic composer Richard Strauss鈥 own 1941 arrangement of Couperin, his Divertimento.

At the interval, join host Elizabeth Alker (麻豆社 Radio 6 Music and Radio 3) for an interval discussion.
