Summary
Carlos Miguel Prieto leads the BBC National Orchestra of Wales at Brangwyn Hall, featuring Ethan Loch in Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue alongside works by Gabriela Ortiz and Manuel de Falla.
Why it's fantastic
If you have ever felt the thrill of a city waking up, you will recognise the famous opening clarinet slide that launches Gershwin’s jazz-age masterpiece. It is the perfect entry point for newcomers, paired here with rhythmic, sun-drenched scores from Mexico and Spain that promise a vibrant night of high-energy storytelling.
