Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra
Sir Simon Rattle conductor
Thomas Adès Aquifer Irish Premiere
Bruckner Symphony No. 4, Romantic
The National Concert Hall’s most ambitious season ever begins with one of Europe’s great ensembles, the mighty Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by living legend Sir Simon Rattle.
An epic experience, Bruckner’s Romantic Symphony marks the 200th anniversary of his birth and launches a season focus on the environment and natural world.
One of today’s leading composers and longtime collaborator with Rattle, Thomas Adès ‘knows exactly what he is doing’ (New York Times). In its Irish premiere, Aquifer is inspired by the natural phenomenon where reserves of water are held in rock and sediment. Rattle describes it as ‘a kind of virtuoso celebration of what an orchestra can do… the colours pop out in an extraordinary way’.
