Summary
Kahchun Wong leads the Hallé at The Bridgewater Hall in a programme featuring Alena Baeva in Sibelius’s Violin Concerto and Roderick Williams joining the choir for Walton’s Belshazzar's Feast.
Why it's fantastic
Experience a wall of sound as baritone Roderick Williams joins a massive choir for Walton’s rhythmic, brass-heavy retelling of a biblical empire's downfall. Before the interval, the mood shifts to the haunting atmosphere of the Finnish forests with a performance of Sibelius’s famously lyrical and technically demanding violin concerto.
