Event Details
As long as composers have been writing music, the natural world has been an inspiration.
In this Music on Sundays concert, Principal Guest Conductor Johannes Fritzsch brings Mother Earth to life with a span of music from across the globe and across history that has taken its inspiration from the natural world.
Australian composer Peter Sculthorpe will feature with his evocative work From Uluru, depicting the heartland of the Australian outback, as will Smetana's ever-popular The Moldau, following the course of a river from a tiny stream (the flute) through to its majestic outpouring into the ocean. Plus many other magical musical depictions of nature. Like nature itself, this concert will soothe you, fill you with awe and refresh your soul.
