Start your musical journey this January with Jan谩膷ek鈥檚 immensely popular tragicomedy The Cunning Little Vixen. With short and pithy symphonic pantomime sections, inventively orchestrated to give each character their own rhythmic motif, this folksy suite is laden with lush harmony and a mood firmly drenched in nature and love.
The immensely popular cellist Laura van der Heijden returns to 蜜芽传媒 NOW with a performance of Martin暖鈥檚 athletic and folky, yet expressively impassioned Cello Concerto, before conductor Antony Hermus turns puppet-master in Stravinsky鈥檚 Petrushka. Petrushka, the rebellious jester falls in love with a Ballerina who falls in love with the Moor in this fated folk story, with the dancing and despairingly flailing puppet cleverly wound into action by Stravinsky鈥檚 ingenious rhythm and orchestration.
