Summary
Izabelė Jankauskaitė conducts the BBC Philharmonic at MediaCityUK in a programme featuring Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite alongside works by Lili Boulanger, Ester Mägi, and Mieczysław Weinberg.
Why it's fantastic
Ravel wrote this music to enchant his friends’ children, and the resulting suite remains a masterclass in soft, storybook magic. This midday performance also offers a rare chance to hear Weinberg’s folk-inflected energy and Lili Boulanger’s vibrant spring sketches in the intimate setting of the orchestra’s home studio.
Programme
- 01Lili Boulanger: D’un matin de printemps
- 02Ester Mägi: Vesper
