Programme to include:
Bernstein Symphonic Suite from On the Waterfront
Bernstein Chichester Psalms
Ravel Piano Concerto in G
Stravinsky Symphony of Psalms
From jazz-tinged sophistication to profound spirituality, the renowned Philharmonia Orchestra closes this year’s Festival in rousing form with a range of 20th-century masterpieces. John Wilson, one of the most engaging communicators in music today, makes his Festival debut with a programme that combines verve and veneration.
The Brighton Festival Chorus is splendidly showcased in two great works that provide a fascinating contrast in their approach to the Psalms. Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms, a rousing setting of the original Hebrew text and one of the most challenging works in the choral repertory, returns to its Sussex roots alongside Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms, a work of elemental grandeur composed ‘for the glory of God’.
The French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet performs Ravel’s quicksilver Piano Concerto in G, a work of sparkling wit and inventiveness, while Bernstein’s magnificent Symphonic Suite for On the Waterfront finds John Wilson on home territory conducting this classic film score.
