SUMMARY:Masterworks & Master-colours
DESCRIPTION:Our final concert of the season takes us on a  journey through
  the rich colours of the orchestra\, exploring all the instruments involve
 d and the technical virtuosity of the violin.\n\nBenjamin Britten - Young 
 Person's Guide to the Orchestra\nBenjamin Britten - Violin Concerto\nVioli
 n:  Zoë Beyers (BBC Philharmonic Orchestra & Britten Sinfonia)\nJohannes
  Brahms - Symphony no 4 in E minor\n\nBenjamin Britten – Young Person's 
 Guide to the Orchestra \nBenjamin Britten began work on The Young Person
 ’s Guide to the Orchestra as a score for a documentary film.  Soon sym
 phony orchestras appropriated it for the concert hall\, often adding spoke
 n commentary.  The theme that serves as the basis of a series of brillian
 t and imaginative variations is a stirring dance tune from Abdelazar by He
 nry Purcell. It is first stated by the full orchestra and then is circulat
 ed among the woodwinds\, brass\, strings\, and percussion before returning
  to the full orchestra again.   \n\nBenjamin Britten – Violin Concerto
  \nThis masterly work was the first composition Britten completed after a
 rriving in the USA in 1939.  It combines virtuosic brilliance with elegia
 c lyricism\, undoubtedly reflecting Britten’s growing concern with the e
 scalation of world hostilities.  After a period of relative neglect\, the
  Violin Concerto has enjoyed a notable revival of interest in recent years
 . \n\nZoë Beyers - Violin\nSouth-African born Zoë Beyers has establishe
 d a reputation as one of the finest and most versatile violinists based in
  the UK\, and performs worldwide as soloist\, chamber musician\, director 
 and orchestral leader.  In 2020 she was appointed Leader of the BBC Philh
 armonic Orchestra.  Zoë appears regularly as guest leader of the Hallé\
 , Royal Liverpool Philharmonic\, BBC Symphony and BBC Scottish Symphony Or
 chestras\, the CBSO\, the Philharmonia\, the Scottish Chamber Orchestra an
 d the Orquesta Nacional de España at the invitation of Maestro Juanjo Men
 a.\n\nJohannes Brahms – Symphony No 4 \nFor his final essay in symphoni
 c form\, Brahms produced a monumental work whose first movement grows from
  the simplest of materials out of which he develops long lines of powerful
 ly emotional\, yet unsentimental grandeur.  What makes the music so compe
 lling may be the way the longer lines ebb and flow with great urgency and 
 lyrical beauty\, while at the same time the contrapuntal complexities lend
  substance and richness to the texture.\n\n\n\nFor full event details\, vi
