Wagner’s Ring cycle is an epic in every sense. The full experience takes four days, but this orchestral ‘adventure’ gives you a taste of the masterpiece – all its majesty, power and drama – in just over an hour! First, though, we welcome our Partnership Ensemble, Dunedin Consort, for Handel’s enchanting Water Music before the Consort’s period instruments lock horns with the full RSNO, in a world premiere from Edinburgh composer Neil Tòmas Smith.
Dedicated to Dr Robert Lillie in recognition of his generous support of the RSNO Foundation.
Repertoire includes
Handel – Water Music Suite No3Neil Tòmas Smith – Hidden Polyphony (World Premiere, RSNO & Dunedin Consort commission)Wagner arr de Vlieger – The Ring, An Orchestral Adventure
