IMAGE ©️Michael WhitefootThis concert celebrates the descriptive and evocative powers of three of British music’s greatest tone poets. Bax’s masterpiece, ‘Tintagel’, is a uniquely stirring evocation of the mysterious hinterlands in which the Arthurian legends were born, while Elgar’s ‘Falstaff’ is a richly textured portrait of the life and personality of one of Shakespeare’s most memorable characters. Holst’s ground-breaking suite ‘The Planets’, a work of unique and extraordinary power, beauty and immediacy crowns this thrilling evening of music with an invocation of the infinite.
