NKO: Som lärkans sång om våren
Violinist Isabelle van Keulen, artistic director of the Norrbotten Chamber Orchestra, offers an atmospheric program that spans several musical landscapes.
The lark has attracted many composers to write exquisitely beautiful and restful music. One of those who has done the very best is the British Ralph Vaughan Williams. His The Lark Ascending for solo violin and orchestra attracts the listener into a wonderfully beautiful musical landscape where we can hear the lark's song as it rises towards the sky. The soloist and conductor is the Norrbotten Chamber Orchestra's artistic director, violinist Isabelle van Keulen. We will also enjoy Jessie Montgomery's wonderfully suggestive and swinging Strum, Samuel Barber's wonderful Adagio and Emilie Mayer's sonorous first symphony.
