Be transported to a different world.
Edward Gardner*
Nicolas Altstaedt ** cello
Robert Laidlow Exoplanets (world premiere) (23’) †
Bloch Schelomo (20’)
Rachmaninov Symphony No. 3 (38’)
Music can take us to different worlds. In this concert, Bloch’s Schelomo evokes a sumptuous vision of a Biblical past and a longed-for future, performed by acclaimed cellist Nicolas Altstaedt. Edward Gardner also conducts Rachmaninov’s sweeping Third Symphony – music filled with nostalgia, hope, and heartfelt melodies – and travels with the young British composer Robert Laidlow to the outer reaches of our galaxy, where he beams an urgent musical message back home to Earth. A very special moment in the LPO’s Harmony with Nature season.
