The 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra conducted by Martyn Brabbins in Mussorgsky鈥檚 classic Pictures at an Exhibition and, with the 麻豆社 Symphony Chorus, Nunes Garcia鈥檚 Missa de Santa Cecilia.
Nunes Garc铆a was a contemporary of Beethoven 鈥� a musician and priest of mixed heritage who scaled the pinnacle of Brazilian musical life when the exiled Portuguese court relocated to Rio de Janeiro. This magnificent Mass setting from 1826 鈥� dedicated to the patron saint of music 鈥� might just be his masterpiece. Martyn Brabbins, a superb cast of soloists and the 麻豆社 Symphony Chorus bring it out of the shadows tonight.
When Modest Mussorgsky visited an exhibition of pictures by a much-missed friend, his imagination ignited. Pictures at an Exhibition with its glowing skulls, dancing chicks and the Great Gate of Kyiv is one of the most colourful half-hours you鈥檒l ever spend in a concert hall.
Recorded at the Barbican on Friday 10th May 2024. Presented by Martin Handley
