Summary
Alpesh Chauhan directs the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in works by Sigfúsdóttir, Strauss and Bruckner at BBC Hoddinott Hall.
Why it's fantastic
Hear twenty-three solo strings weave together in a poignant lament written amidst the ruins of post-war Germany. The mood shifts as a powerful choir joins a wind ensemble for a rare performance of a mass that feels both monumental and intimate, making the two-hour journey a perfect introduction to these hauntingly beautiful textures.
