| 7.30pm St Nicolas Church West Mills Newbury RG14 5HG Details: Ashley Morris +44 (0)163532421 £57, 40, 27 | London Mozart Players Ben Goldscheider, horn London Mozart Players Jonathan Bloxham, conductor Elgar: Introduction & Allegro Anna Clyne: Sirens Mozart: Horn Concerto No 4 Mendelssohn: Symphony No 1 Newbury Spring Festival Ben Goldscheider is recognised as one of the leading musicians of his generation. Tonight he makes a welcome return to the Festival with the London Mozart Players. He will be performing the ever-popular Mozart Horn Concerto No 4, but he will also play a new work Sirens by GRAMMY-nominated composer Anna Clyne. Dedicated to tonight's horn soloist Ben Goldscheider, the music draws on the myth of the sirens who lured sailors to their doom with their irresistible voices. Working closely together, Anna and Ben pushed the boundaries of the horn to conjure the sirens' hypotonic sound world; ethereal, beguiling and completely entrancing. The concert opens with Elgar's ever-popular Introduction & Allegro, and after the interval Mendelssohn's Symphony No 1 sparkles with the classical spirit of Mozart, while the symphonic fingerprints of Haydn and Beethoven forcefully emerge throughout the composition. |
