Ralph Vaughan Williams: Fantasia on Greensleeves
Bela Bartok: Romanian Folk Dances
Paul Hindemith: Der Schwanendreher*
Peter Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 4
This concert features the viola, which is a rare event indeed! Sebastian Krunnies, violist in the Berlin Philharmonic, joins Richard Lee and the ETSO for a performance of Der Schwanendreher (which quite intriguingly means The Swan-turner!!). It and the remainder of the program with feature folk and dance music from across the globe, including a lovely arrangement of Greensleeves.
*first performance by ETSO
