Simon Rattle and the LSO
Soprano Nicole Cabell and the LSO give the London premiere of George Walker’s Lilacs. Dvořák’s American Suite, Op 98b, and Schumann’s Second Symphony complete the programme.
Alongside well-known works by Dvořák and Schumann, Sir Simon Rattle presents George Walker’s setting of Walt Whitman’s great poem beginning “When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom’d, And the great star early droop’d in the western sky in the night, I mourn’d, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring.”
Presented by Martin Handley.
