John Storgards (conductor)
The Overture to Nielsen's Maskarade sets the scene for a masked ball, full of vivacious energy and playful wit. Shostakovich's hugely powerful Tenth Symphony received its first performance soon after Stalin died and its opening movement speaks bleakly of suffering while the Scherzo snarls with venom. Pioneering trumpeter Hakan Hardenberger is the soloist in Peter Maxwell Davies's Concerto, with its virtuoso solo demands and rich orchestral palette. A still, calm voice here is the plainsong quoted by the composer celebrating the feast of St Francis. The sounds of birds feature too, familiar from Max's Orkney home, rather than from Assisi.
