Anna Clyne DANCE for cello and orchestra

Maurice Ravel Rapsodie Espagnole

Conductor: Alexandre Bloch
Cello: Inbal Segev 

Recommended Age:
Suitable for all. Children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

The ‘world’s greatest orchestra of teenagers’ returns with an exciting and surprising programme steered by leading conductor Alexandre Bloch and featuring celebrated Israeli-American cellist Inbal Segev.

Zand ruminates on the alluring tumult of city life, from the roaring streets to the glistening skyline, while DANCE, originally commissioned by Segev, is Clynne’s impressive and lyrical five-part piece inspired by a poem from 13th-century Sufi mystic Rumi.

The concert concludes with two Spanish flavoured pieces: the most popular section from Debussy’s Images suite, the shimmering Ibéria, and Ravel’s Rapsodie, which moves from a nocturnal sketch to a blazing festival of orchestral colour.
