Summary
Sir Mark Elder conducts the Hallé Orchestra and Choirs at The Bridgewater Hall in a programme of Debussy, James MacMillan, and Richard Strauss’s tone poem Ein Heldenleben.
Why it's fantastic
Sir Mark Elder leads a monumental evening featuring over a hundred musicians on stage for a tone poem of cinematic proportions. You will experience everything from delicate French impressionism to a brass-heavy autobiography that feels like the sonic equivalent of a wide-screen epic, complete with a massive, floor-shaking orchestral finish.
