Professor Jonathan Cross introduces Arnold Schoenberg and the contradictions that surround him: a revolutionary figure steeped in tradition, a rule breaker and a rule maker, whose music can be challenging but is often surprisingly beautiful. This is an ideal introduction for anyone who doesn't yet know what all the fuss is about!
Rémy Ballot and OUO Solo Players - Bruckner: String Quintet, Mathilde Kralik: Nonet
Following their successful chamber ensemble programme of Mozart and Strauss last January, violinist and conductor Rémy Ballot is joined by a chamber ensemble drawn from members of OUO to give a concert that presents Bruckner’s resplendent String Quintet alongside the work of his student, Mathilde Kralik. Kralik’s Nonet is scored for the rare combination of clarinet, bassoon, two horns, string quartet and piano.
