Auckland Chamber Orchestra
Programme:
Silvestre Revueltas | Batik
Eve de Castro-Robinson | Len Songs
John Rimmer | Lunar Eclipse
Jean Sibelius | Symphony No. 3
Here's our final concert for 2022. It's got song, chamber music and a symphony. We will be finishing with Symphony No. 3 by Sibelius - a beautiful work of majesty and exquiste melodies. The title of this concert is from Len Songs which is a setting of Len Lye's words by Eve de Castro-Robinson. She has written an opera on Len Lye's life and also a set of dances. Len Songs sets his poems to music with intimate flair and colourful energy. After last concert's success with the music of Silvestre Revueltas we are playing another of his works - 'Batik' - it's fun! And then there's 'Lunar Eclipse' for four Wagner tubas. ACO concerts are full of variety and this one peaks in that regard!
