Hearing the complete Daphnis and Chloé with chorus is an overwhelming experience. Few scores have the opulent richness of sound that Ravel conjures up in this magical music, and Donald Runnicles and the orchestra will surely revel in its virtuosity. New York-based Israeli pianist Shai Wosner is a BBC Radio 3 New Genera...tion Artist whose rising international reputation has already taken him to some of the world's greatest orchestras. The Confession of Isobel Gowdie, premiered by the BBC SSO in 1990, has become one of the most often played modern British compositions around the world. A long-established BBC SSO party piece, this performance will mark James MacMillan's 50th birthday year in truly dramatic style.Read More
