DVOŘÁK Noonday Witch
DVOŘÁK Wind Serenade
STRAUSS Ein Heldenleben
Mark Shanahan Conductor
Walthamstow Assembly Hall
The translation of Ein Heldenleben is ‘A Hero’s Life’, and Strauss aims to tell the story of his life using snippets of his own music alongside depictions of sniping music critics and his wife. Dvořák also likes to tell stories in his music, and the opening piece tells the tale of a mischievous young boy whose mother tells him if he doesn’t behave that the noonday witch will come for him....
Free pre-concert talk downstairs at 5.30pm in the Jubilee Room.
