Eric Hull conducts the MPO in an enticing programme featuring French and German repertoire. Brahms’s Tragic Overture is a fine examples of German tradition at it’s most romantic, whilst The Seven Early Songs (Sieben frühe Lieder) are early compositions of Alban Berg, written while he was under the tutelage of Arnold Schoenberg. Soprano Miriam Cauchi will be the featured soloist for these lieder.Debussy’s famous Symphonic Poem Après-midi d’un faune opens the second half, followed by Poulence’s Sinfonietta, a composer who is considered to be one of the great melodists of the twentieth century.
