Vaughan Williams: The Lark Ascending
Respighi: Pines of Rome
Scale the highest musical mountain as Michael Francis brings together more than 100 musicians – onstage and off – to perform Richard Strauss’ spectacular tone poem An Alpine Symphony for the first time in 25 years. Then, let Concertmaster Jeffrey Multer and the sublime violin solo of Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending lift your spirits before you are swept away by the grandeur of Respighi’s Pines of Rome, which surrounds you with the breathtaking sound of brass positioned in the audience.
