Royal Welsh College Of Music And Drama Symphony Orchestra

Programme:
Dvorak - Overture Carnival, Op.92
Szymanowski -Stabat Mater, Op.53
Dvorak - Symphony No. 8 in G, Op.88

Conceived amongst Poland’s mysterious, aloof Tatra mountains, the cool passion of Szymanowski’s Stabat Mater evokes a naively devotional paganism. Savour its rapt atmosphere alongside two Czech masterpieces: the genial humour, warmth, and vitality of Dvo?ák’s Eighth Symphony and his Carnival Overture’s brilliant youthful high spirits: three great showpieces for the Chorus and Symphony Orchestra of the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama.
