The Planets
Crosby & Wirral Symphony Orchestras conducted by Jonathan Small - Liverpool Philharmonic
Program Info: Crosby & Wirral Symphony Orchestras Jonathan Small, conductor William Bracken, piano
Helping to fundraise for local charities
In 2019, two of the Northwest’s premier local orchestras joined forces for the first time for a truly memorable performance of Richard Strauss’ Alpine Symphony. Now, the collaboration continues as both orchestras take to the stage for Gustav Holst’s stellar journey through the cosmos. Joined by ladies from Liverpool Welsh Choral, there will be up to 150 performers involved in the performance!
In the first half, CSO start off the afternoon with Britten’s ever-popular Young Person’s Guide, whilst WSO welcome back local pianist William Bracken in a performance of Prokofiev’s vibrant 3rd piano concerto. Conducted by Jonathan Small, it is sure to be an afternoon to remember for all concerned.
