Rossini's Stabat Mater

Nil Venditti returns to the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales to conduct Respighi’s La boutique fantasque and Rossini’s Stabat Mater.

Conductor Nil Venditti returns to the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ National Orchestra of Wales for a programme which celebrates the music of her fellow countrymen, Respighi and Rossini. The concert opens with Respighi's music to the ballet La boutique fantasque (The Fantastic Toyshop), which is based on piano music by Rossini and displays the magical whimsy of dolls in a shop coming to life to dance. Then, after the interval, Nil and the Orchestra will be joined by the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ National Chorus of Wales and four outstanding soloists to perform Rossini's Stabat Mater, an ostentatious and deeply passionate setting of this religious text.

Live from ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Hoddinott Hall in Cardiff, and presented by ShΓ’n Cothi.
