About Simone Young conducts Elgar & Vaughan Williams
Elgar’s Violin Concerto commands your attention from its very first notes.
With its intertwining passages of mystery and nostalgia this is music of emotional depth, and the memory of the ethereal melody in the second movement will linger long after the final note fades. The Sydney Symphony Orchestra’s ‘charismatic and brilliant’ (The Sunday Times) Concertmaster Andrew Haveron takes centre stage as soloist in this exquisite concerto.
As Vaughan Williams’ Pastoral Symphony weaves its lush tapestry, a solo trumpet elegy recalling the Last Post reminds us that these exquisite images are anchored in the composer’s experiences of the First World War. It’s a poignant moment that strikes at the heart and powerfully demonstrates the way beauty and sadness are often inextricably linked.
After rave reviews for her interpretation of Vaughan Williams’ Eighth Symphony in 2023, Simone Young continues her exploration of the music of this great English composer and paints a picture in sound that will be hard to resist.
