SUMMARY:March 2019 Concert
DESCRIPTION:Rimsky-Korsakov’s Russian Easter Festival Overture features tunes based on Russian Orthodox chants\, and the mood ranges from solemnity to exuberant celebration.  \nThe Firebird is one of Stravinsky’s early ballets\, retelling an ancient Russian folk tale in which we meet a villainous ogre\, imprisoned princesses and the magical Firebird.  The gorgeous melodies and colourful orchestration remind us that Stravinsky was one of Rimsky-Korsakov’s pupils.  \nThe Symphonic Dances was Rachmaninov’s final composition\, and his continuing obsession with the Dies Irae chant and Russian church music conveys his sense of impending doom.  The brilliant scoring includes a piano\, alto saxophone and large percussion section.  A succession of lyrical melodies\, a waltz from a haunted ballroom and a whirling witches’ Sabbath lead to the triumphant ending\, in which ‘Death is swallowed up in Victory’.

SUMMARY:June 2018 Concert
DESCRIPTION:Our Czech programme opens with the fourth of Smetana’s cycle of patriotic tone poems\, Má Vlast. From Bohemia’s Forests and Meadows conjures up the feelings inspired by the Czech landscape\, from the grandeur of great forests to the exuberance of village festivals. \nViola player Laura Sinnerton joins the orchestra for Martinů’s melodic Rhapsody Concerto. Martinůe migrated to the USA in 1941 and the many Moravian folk tunes he employs express his longing for his native Czechoslovakia.  \nDvořák’s carefree Eighth Symphony is steeped in the atmosphere of the Czech countryside and features hunting horns\, bird calls and lively folk tunes. Along with his New World Symphony\, it has become one of Dvořák’s most popular works.

SUMMARY:March 2018 Concert
DESCRIPTION:Our programme explores the expression of contrasting moods. En Saga was Sibelius’ first major tone poem. In spite of its title (‘A Story’) it is an abstract piece depicting the feelings inspired by the Finnish landscape. \nVariations on a Theme by Haydn is also a rather misleading title\, as the St Anthony Chorale tune on which Brahms based the work later turned out not to have been composed by Haydn — but its unique character is the basis for a set of variations exploring a wide variety of moods and colours. \nDanish composer Nielsen’s Second Symphony is subtitled The Four Temperaments and follows the idea of the four humours of Greco-Roman medicine — choleric\, melancholic\, sanguine and phlegmatic\, each of which is distinctively portrayed in music. The symphony was inspired by a comical picture the composer saw in a country pub and it quickly became one of Nielsen’s best-loved orchestral works.

SUMMARY:November 2017 Concert
DESCRIPTION:Bath Symphony Orchestra is pleased to announce a very special and exciting concert to mark the beginning of its 70th anniversary season. The orchestra will be joined by the highly acclaimed Bristol Choral Society.  \n Mahler’s Second Symphony is one of the most expansive symphonies ever written\, which will make this concert a spectacular aural and visual experience for all. Mahler demands an orchestra of more than one hundred performers\, two off-stage brass and percussion ensembles\, an organ\, two vocal soloists and a large choir that adds to the musical texture in the final movement. The enormity of the symphony makes it a rarely performed work. \n Written in five movements\, the symphony was influenced by Mahler’s interest in aspects of life and death\, redemption\, renewal and ultimately resurrection seen through an intense musical journey. However\, the work is less religious and more existential in nature than the subtitle might imply. \n As the Orchestra celebrates 70 years of making music to the highest standards\, join us at this rare opportunity to hear this vast and amazing symphony – a performance that is set to be an unmissable and memorable highlight of the musical year in Bath.
