There’s nothing the human voice can’t do. In Mahler’s Fourth Symphony, it paints a picture of heaven at the end of a journey through blue skies, summer storms and shining mountain peaks.
Meanwhile, Grace-Evangeline Mason’s exciting new piece has been created especially for our soloist Sophie Bevan, a soprano with a voice of pure gold. Strauss’ Don Juan kicks things off in truly swashbuckling style.
Judgement Day: drums thunder, trumpets blast, and a massed chorus cries out in terror.
Verdi’s Requiem might not be what you expect from religious music. But it’s exactly what you’d expect from the grand master of Italian opera, and with the full Choir joined by four world-class soloists, hold on to your seats and prepare to be overwhelmed as Domingo Hindoyan ends our season of song by taking you to the end of the world – and back again.
From down on the Docks to the Philharmonic Hall, music is the lifeblood of Liverpool – so much so that we’re officially a UNESCO City of Music.
Tonight, they’re shining a spotlight on the artists who were made on Merseyside, opening the Liverpool Songbook and celebrating the iconic tracks that helped put our city on the musical map.
With the spectacular Liverpool journalist, author and broadcaster Spencer Leigh as host, star singers from the West End and the full might of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra perform hits from The Coral, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, OMD, Cilla Black, Elvis Costello, Ken Dodd, The Spinners, a little-known band called The Beatles, and many more.
Bach’s Easter Oratorio, first performed on Easter Sunday 1725, features four principal characters: the apostles Peter and John, Mary Magdalene and ‘the other Mary’ and is an account of their meeting at the empty tomb. The chorus and soloists are joined by an ensemble which includes recorders, flute, oboes d’amore, three trumpets and timpani.
Liverpool Bach Collective aims to perform a cantata by J S Bach in a church in the Liverpool area each month on a Sunday afternoon, as part of an act of worship. As far as possible, the cantatas are chosen specifically to match the readings of the day.
