In 450 BC the Greek philosopher Empedocles proposed the four elements as fire, earth, air and water.

This concert presents these classical elements in musical form, beginning with Jean-Féry Rebel’s unsettling Chaos from his Les Élémens suite and concluding with Debussy’s magical triptych La Mer.

Orchestra of the Swan present the first performance of Air, a new commission by David Gordon and jazz saxophonist Tim Whitehead featuring students from Warwick Schools Foundation in a special collaboration.
