Music Director Kazuki Yamada once again takes the helm for a City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra concert, this time leading them in a programme of work that features pieces by two of France’s greatest 20th-century composers.
The concert opens with Suite No1 from the largest work ever written by Maurice Ravel: Daphnis et Chloé.
Suite No2 also features, presented on the other side of Fazıl Say’s performance of Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G major.
The evening comes to a close in the company of soprano Eleanor Lyons (pictured), who takes on the challenge of Francis Poulenc’s Stabat Mater. Based on a medieval text, the work was written by the French composer in response to the untimely death of artist and friend Christian Bérard.
