Night music and mysterious voices infuse both Debussy's evocative Nocturnes and George Benjamin's new work for star countertenor Iestyn Davies, Dream of the Song. Gunter Schuller's Dreamscape, apparently dictated to the composer in a dream, opens the concert. Schuller's father was a violinist in the New York Philharmonic at the time Stravinsky wrote his turbulent, chromatic war-time masterpiece for that orchestra: the Symphony in Three Movements. Expect dynamism and detail from Schuller's disciple, conductor Oliver Knussen.
