SUMMARY:CSO presents Lamb & Hayward Masterworks "The Curtain Raiser: Meredith\, Fisher & Kavanagh Poutama\, Rachmaninov
DESCRIPTION:CSO presents Lamb & Hayward Masterworks “The Curtain Raiser: Meredith\, Fisher & Kavanagh Poutama\, Rachmaninov” on Saturday 1st March 2025\, 7.30 p.m. in the Douglas Lilburn Auditorium\, Christchurch Town Hall\, Kilmore Street\, Christchurch \nLamb & Hayward Masterworks: The Curtain Raiser kicks off the 2025 season with a bang\,with music by Scottish composer Anna Meredith\, described as “one of the most exciting compositional catalysts of our time.” Equally at home in acoustic and electronic music\, her work Nautilus was originally an\nelectronic track\, and audiences can expect rhythmic drive and excitement.  \nŌtautahi audiences will also be treated to work by homegrown composers Salina Fisher and Jerome Kavanagh Poutama\, who lead us into a beautiful soundscape of Aotearoa. This piece honours Papatūānuku (earth mother) as the bearer of all life\, and centres instruments/voices that are closely connected to the natural world. Papatūānuku heroes the mahi of Jerome\, who plays 19 different taonga puoro throughout a work that artfully weaves in orchestral texture and colour. The review from its 2023 premiere described how “one marveled at the hushed beauty he coaxed from various flutes.”  \nRachmaninov’s epic second symphony acts as a counterbalance to the concert’s first half. A cornerstone of the repertoire ever since hitting the concert stage in 1908\, this is the ideal live orchestral experience: sometimes stormy and brooding\, sometimes radiant and soaring\, always powerful and full of feeling. \nWith thanks to PKF Goldsmith Fox\,\nCSO Soloist Partner. \nBenjamin Northey Chief Conductor\nJerome Kavanagh Poutama Taonga puoro\nAnna Meredith Nautilus\nSalina Fisher & Jerome Kavanagh Poutama Papatūānuku\nRachmaninov Symphony No. 2 in E minor Op. 2 \n

SUMMARY:CSO presents "Boulanger\, Barker\, Mahler"
DESCRIPTION:CSO presents “Boulanger\, Barber\, Mahler” on Saturday 30th November 2024\, 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. in the Douglas Lilburn Auditorium\, Christchurch Town Hall\, Kilmore Street\, Christchurch. \n Be drawn into the dark and foreboding sound world of trailblazing French composer Lili Boulanger’s D’un soir triste – written shortly before her death at the age of just 24\, and full of musical expression beyond her years.  It was two years after the Second World War when Samuel Barber was commissioned to write Knoxville: Summer of 1915 by the Boston Symphony. Beautiful prose by the writer James Agee paints a picture of Tennessee in 1915\, where a small boy lies in the grass and describes the sounds around him. Barber masterfully evokes childhood memories in his orchestration\, and celebrated Aotearoa New Zealand soprano Anna Leese will sweep audiences up into the vivid scene.  Anna Leese also joins CSO for Mahler’s Fourth Symphony\, where the final movement is a soprano solo describing a child’s carefree vision of heaven\, with no music on Earth comparable to the music of the angels. It is known as Mahler’s charming and childlike symphony\, complete with jingling sleigh-bells\, but also brings the quintessentially epic Mahlerian orchestral forces that need to be experienced live for full effect. \n Benjamin Northey: Chief Conductor\nAnna Leese: Soprano\nLili Boulanger: D’un soir triste (Of a Sad Evening)\nBarber Knoxville: Summer of 1915\nMahler: Symphony No. 4 in G Major \nWebsite: http://www.cso.co.nz
