BBC Philharmonic
A celebration of British musical talent, today's concert includes music by three of UK's finest composers: Bantock, Bowen and Musgrave.
The metaphorical curtain rises on this afternoon’s concert with an opener from Bantock – the comedy overture to The Frogs.
Former BBC New Generation Artist, Lawrence Power, is today’s soloist – taking centre stage for Bowen’s imaginative Viola Concerto – before the programme closes with Musgrave’s orchestral autumn-to-summer cycle, The Seasons.

Saturday, September 16, 2017 at 13.55 Knussen, Elgar, Payne, Finzi & Britten BBC Philharmonic Studio MediaCityUK, Broadway, Salford, M50 2HQ United Kingdom
BBC Philharmonic
Andrew Gourlay raises his baton to open today’s programme with Knussen's delightful
The Way to Castle Yonder.
Taken from fantasy opera, Higglety Pigglety Pop – a collaboration between Knussen and American author Maurice Sendak – this piece brings vividly coloured illustrations from page to note. Of his opera, Knusson said ‘Higglety is an evocation of the music I wanted to write [as a child] but didn’t know how’.
Continuing the thread of youth, the orchestra advance with Nursey Suite, a piece which Elgar, in his later years, ‘worked up’ from his youthful and unpublished compositions.
The afternoon continues with Payne’s Half-heard in the Stillness, a ten-minute orchestral tone-poem. Payne describes himself as ‘a passionate Elgarian’ and uses Elgar’s Memorial Chimes - written for the Loughborough Carillon - as his starting point.
The gestation of today’s penultimate piece, Finzi’s Farewell to Arms, took place over many years and reflects his enthusiasm for seventeenth-century poets – brought to life today by Tenor, Robin Tritschler.
Closing the programme is Britten’s Sinfonia da Requiem, a powerful orchestral work inspired by the texts from the Requiem Mass and dedicated to the memory of Britten’s parents. With this dedication in mind, the final movement, ‘Requiem aeternam’ – meaning ‘eternal rest grant to them’ is particularly poignant.
This concert is a live broadcast for BBC Radio 3.

Saturday, September 16, 2017 at 7:30pm Odyssey Opera Performs The Maid of Orleans Jordan Hall, Boston 30 Gainsborough Street United States 617-585-1260 http://www.newenglandconservatory.edu
Tickets: $20 and Up Odyssey Opera
Odyssey Opera kicks off its 2017-2018 season, Trial By Fire: Joan of Arc and the Hundred Year War, with Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's "The Maid of Orleans." This one-night-only concert opera performance will be at Jordan Hall September 16, 2017, at 7:30pm. In Maid of Orléans (1878), Tchaikovsky’s sixth opera, Joan falls for a British soldier who switches alliances to the French army, a more accurate story. Tchaikovsky remains true to Joan’s fiery martyrdom, and her legendary encounter with Charles VII, and creates a musical portrait of an intrepid girl leading the French army.

Guildhall Musicians
An evening of music by living composers, personally chosen by Thomas Adès to celebrate the arrival of Sir Simon Rattle at the LSO.
As Sir Simon Rattle begins his London tenure, he’s renewing his commitment to the music of living composers. In celebration, one of those composers – Thomas Adès – has chosen eight inspirational works by some of the most distinctive voices of our time.
It’s a wonderfully diverse evening too – a real ‘state of the art’ survey of classical music in the 21st century, from the concentrated poetry of Kurtág and Birtwistle to the communicative energy of Osvaldo Golijov and the late Nicholas Maw. Up close in Milton Court, the young players of the Guildhall School are the ideal team to celebrate a new chapter in British music.
Per Nørgård : Hut Ab! Nicholas Maw : The Head of Orpheus Judith Weir : The Alps Harrison Birtwistle : Célan settings Niccolò Castiglioni : Vallis Clausa Gyorgy Kurtág : Eletut Osvaldo Golijov : Sarajevo John Woolrich : A Farewell , Madness : Cardiac Arrest (arr Adès)

Saturday, September 23, 2017 at 7.30pm Other Presences: The Music of Jonathan Harvey LSO St Luke's, London 161 Old Street London EC1V 9NG United Kingdom 020 7638 8891 http://www.lso.co.uk/lsostlukes/ admin@lso.co.uk
BBC Singers
Haunting, spiritual, ecstatic: Jonathan Harvey’s music blurs the boundaries between east and west, body and soul. Its lucid, bell-like resonances and pioneering use of electronics will take you on a journey into new and transformative worlds.
Mortuos Plango, Vivos Voco is an electro-acoustic masterpiece. Spinning sonorities ring out as it blends sound samples of a cathedral bell and the voice of a chorister.
The looped, harmonised trumpet parts in Other Presences weave sounds that echo the music of Tibetan Buddhist purification rituals.
Forms of emptiness sets the vivid flashes of joy in poetry by E.E Cummings against a Buddhist Sanskrit chant, creating moments that feel transient and scarcely real.
Experience Harvey’s compelling music among Britten’s virtuosic cantata AMDG and a new work by Wim Henderickx, whose music reflects his fascination for eastern sound-worlds and philosophies.
Benjamin Britten : A.M.D.G. Op.17 Jonathan Harvey : Mortuos plango, vivos voco Jonathan Harvey : I Love the Lord Jonathan Harvey : The Annunication Jonathan Harvey : Other Presences Jonathan Harvey : Forms of Emptiness Wim Henderickx : Blossomings Jonathan Harvey : How could the soul not take flight

Saturday, September 23, 2017 at 7.30pm This is Rattle: Birtwistle Barbican Hall, London Barbican, Silk Street, London EC2 United Kingdom 020 7638 8891 http://www.barbican.org.uk/eticketing
BBC Singers
Martyn Brabbins conductor
Philippa Davies flute
Helen Tunstall, Hugh Webb & Lucy Wakeford harps
Ancient and modern meet in an intriguing programme that folds time back across the centuries, juxtaposing Varèse, Machaut, Byrd and Birtwistle.
Simon Rattle has long championed Sir Harrison Birtwistle’s music. Now Birtwistle returns the compliment with a personally-curated musical greeting.
In his first concerts with the LSO, Rattle reaffirms his commitment to the powerful, unmistakably personal music of Harrison Birtwistle. Birtwistle’s own vocal music – and that of his forebears – forms the heart of this musical tribute from composer to conductor.
Martyn Brabbins conducts the BBC Singers in the intimate but atmospheric space of Milton Court, in a work that they co-commissioned: the poignant and profoundly beautiful Moth Requiem of 2012. But Birtwistle layers the concert with memories and echoing voices from across eight centuries - from Machaut to Byrd and Varèse. A programme as subtle and provocative as one of Rattle’s own.
Edgard Varèse : Octandre De Machaut : Messe de Nostre Dame Harrison Birtwistle : Pulse Sampler William Byrd : Lamentations Harrison Birtwistle : The Moth Requiem

Wednesday, October 4, 2017 at 7.30pm Thomas Larcher UK Premiere Barbican Hall, London Barbican, Silk Street, London EC2 United Kingdom 020 7638 8891 http://www.barbican.org.uk/eticketing
BBC Symphony Orchestra/Vedernikov
A programme of variety and invention from a quartet of Austro-German composers opens with music by a BBC SO favourite, Thomas Larcher (whose Symphony made such an impact at the 2016 BBC Proms). It is followed by a UK premiere of Bruch’s Double Piano Concerto (with two of today’s most exciting young pianists), a work from 1912 of unashamed Romantic sensibility. Anton Webern’s exquisite Six Pieces from two years earlier show a very different musical language. The concert ends with a rare chance to hear Haydn’s Farewell Symphony with its closing plea to the composer’s employer to move his court back to Vienna – all these years later it retains its powerful originality, invention and humour.

BBC Philharmonic
Conductor Clark Rundell
Conductor Clark Rundell opens this afternoon’s programme with Lindberg’s Ottoni – an emotional tour de force for orchestral brass. Completed in 2005 for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, this highly expressive piece shines with instrumental colour.
Next, the orchestra play Ayrshire-born James MacMillan’s 2012 Olympic commission Fanfare Upon One Note – a two minute blaze of brass.
