The Music Makers
City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra conducted by Sofi Jeannin - Symphony Hall
Program Info: City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Sofi Jeannin, Conductor Dame Sarah Connolly, Mezzo Soprano CBSO Chorus CBSO Youth Chorus CBSO Children's Chorus
Led by Sofi Jeannin, the CBSO, CBSO choruses and Dame Sarah Connolly perform a superb programme of music - that’s all about the people who make it. Weir’s Music, Untangled draws on Scottish folk-song, while Muhly’s Friday Afternoons, following Britten’s example, is inventively written for children. Britten’s famous Young Person’s Guide tours the orchestra; while Elgar quotes his famous ‘Nimrod’ in Music Makers.
