Tchaikovsky
Overture 1812 [16']
The season begun with a programme of Russian melodies and ends in the same vein but perhaps just a little louder. Glinka based his opera Russian and Ludmilla on a charming by satirical fairy tale by Pushkin. Orkney Wedding with Sunrise is a musical depiction of a boozy and jubilant party of the Isle of Hoy. Dukas invokes the ultimate punishment on a lazy apprentice based on the poem by Goethe and the season comes to a thundering climax in the most famous of overtures. For the other work? - well it's up to you. Nominations of your choice in Autumn, voting over Christmas and the New Year and the most popular played in March. More details on how to nominate and vote on our website in the Newsletter and in the autumnal programme booklets.
