Petroc Trelawny introduces a concert given yesterday in the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester. Schoenberg's affectionate tribute to Brahms and Strauss's vibrant portrait of Don Juan frame Colin Matthew 's elegiac choral settings of Edmund Blunden. These evoke a bleak, war-torn landscape, a dance of death and a pastoral memory from childhood that becomes a nightmare. Halle Choir and Orchestra, conductor Lu Jia Strauss Don Juan
Colin Matthews Aftertones
Brahms, arr Schoenberg Piano Quartet No 1 in G minor
