Never miss another 'City Of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO)' show
Variations On America: City Of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO)
No country is as diverse as the USA – and that goes for its music too. But whether you're walking Leonard Bernstein's mean streets or deep in Aaron Copland's green hills; whether you're at the movies with Bernard Herrmann or searching a nation's psyche with John Adams, you're guaranteed sincere feelings, epic vistas and larger-than-life tunes. And, of course, fun – as conductor Matthew Coorey kicks off with Ives's outrageous musical spoof of a tune that you might just recognise...
Programme:
Ives: Variations on America
Herrmann: Suite from Psycho
Copland: Appalachian Spring
Adams: The Wound-Dresser
Bernstein: Symphonic Dances from West Side Story
