Join the Â鶹ԼÅÄ Concert Orchestra at Watford Colosseum for an evocative afternoon of twentieth-century orchestral music.
¸é²¹±¹±ð±ô’s Le Tombeau de Couperin, originally a suite for solo piano, pays homage to both baroque French music and friends of the composer who died in World War I through an almost childlike world of orchestral colour. Young Franco-Spanish guitarist and Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 3 New Generation Artist Thibaut Garcia performs Rodrigo’s ever popular Concierto de Aranjuez, considered the cornerstone of the classical guitar concerto repertoire. English composer Elizabeth Maconchy’s composition Nocturne for Orchestra creates a mysterious, dreamlike atmosphere while the folkloristic Concerto for Orchestra by Lutoslawski rounds the afternoon’s concert off with a flourish!
This concert will be broadcast live on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 3 for Afternoon on 3.
