HK Gruber (conductor)
Hear a timeless story made startlingly new, as HK Gruber and some of the greatest singers of our time join forces in Stravinsky's astonishing opera-oratorio 'Oedipus Rex'. It's the jaw-dropping finish to a night of myth, poetry and basic instincts: from Britten's rapturous 'Serenade' through the passionate and visceral emotions of the orchestral interludes from James MacMillan's most recent opera, 'The Sacrifice'.
