The Camerata Players: Grieg, Nolan, Dvořák 7
Holy Name Church, Manchester – 7:30PM
The Camerata Players make a return in their opening concert of 2020 to play Dvorak’s Seventh Symphony in D minor, arguably his finest symphony. The concert also features the world premiere of Dan Nolan’s ‘Duplicity’ for Bassoon, Vibraphone and Orchestra: ‘the work explores the archaic definition of the word – the state of being double. Both soloists begin as a single unit slowly breaking apart to become unique voices.’ The concert opens with Grieg’s lyrical Peer Gynt Suite No. 1.
Grieg Peer Gynt Suite No. 1; Dan Nolan Duplicity – for Bassoon, Vibraphone and Orchestra (world premiere); Dvořák Symphony No. 7 in D Minor
