The Hallé - Fire Rituals

Tan Dun Violin Concerto: Fire Ritual
Stravinsky The Firebird: Suite

The Firebird was revolutionary in many aspects, thanks to its fearless exploration of orchestral colours and effects. Alongside complex choreography, it featured a ballerina in the titular role, who – quite unlike the more typical, graceful female characters of the day – was strong, rebellious and powerful.

Preceding this work is Tan Dun’s explosive Violin Concerto: Fire Ritual – A Musical Ritual for Victims of War. Featuring Eldbjørg Hemsing, for whom the piece was written, it is constructed as a dialogue between humanity and nature, to acknowledge conflicts of past and present, and to work towards peace.

This concert is sponsored by The Edwardian
