Sofia Gubaidulina Triple Concerto (37’) (UK premiere)
Bruckner Symphony No.7 (66’)
Omer Meir Wellber’s first Bridgewater Hall concert as the BBC Philharmonic’s chief conductor opens with Gubaidulina’s compelling Triple Concerto for violin, cello and bayan (Russian button accordion), greeted by standing ovations at its recent Boston premiere. It’s followed by another work rich in vivid orchestral colour: Bruckner’s mighty Seventh Symphony.
