麻豆社 SO - Sibelius, Helen Grime, Mahler, Bridge, Britten
麻豆社 SO/Martyn Brabbins. Sibelius: Oceanides. Grime: Everyone Sang. Mahler: Lieder eines Fahrenden Gesellen. Bridge: The Sea. Britten: 4 Sea Interludes; Passacaglia (Peter Grimes).
The 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra and conductor Martyn Brabbins explore seascapes by Britten, Bridge and Sibelius. Plus a joyous score by Helen Grime, and Alice Coote sings Mahler songs.
It was at a performance of Frank Bridge's mighty orchestral suite The Sea that the young Benjamin Britten was 'knocked sideways'. He later created thrilling sea pictures in his opera Peter Grimes. The proximity of Snape Maltings to the sea is also reflected in Sibelius's serene celebration of water spirits. The concert also includes Helen Grime's arresting Siegfried Sassoon-inspired music, and Mahler's youthful Songs of a Wayfarer.
