EAChO return with Stephen Bryant
The East Anglia Chamber Orchestra is delighted to return to The Apex with another exciting, romantic and deeply moving programme. Under the baton of Jacques Cohen, the concerts will begin with the joyous Cockaigne Overture by Edward Elgar. It presents a lively and colourful portrait of Edwardian London and is considered the composerโs best overture. Erich Korngold worked in Hollywood during the second world war and his Violin Concerto draws on themes from his film scores. This lyrical concerto, dedicated to Alma Mahler, demonstrates his superb craftsmanship. Much to Korngoldโs delight, our soloist, Stephen Bryant, gave the concerto its UK premiere in 1982. The Banks of Green Willow is George Butterworthโs most popular work and is based on two English folksongs. This serene and beautiful work was written in 1913: sadly, the young composer died in battle on the Western Front. Written in 1898-9, The Enigma Variations were an immediate success and established Elgarโs growing reputation internationally. The original theme and 14 variations are dedicated to โmy friends pictured withinโ and portray a general impression of each personality and specific musical characteristics. The ninth variation, Nimrod, is played annually at the Cenotaph in Whitehall. Join us for a wonderful evening of inspiring music-making.
