SUMMARY:London, UK – Royal Philharmonic Orchestra – Messiaen
DESCRIPTION:Vasily Petrenko, onductor\nCécile Lartigau, ondes martenot\nSteven Osborne OBE, Piano\n1927 Mixed-media theatre company\nRoyal Philharmonic Orchestra\nPROGRAMME\nMessiaen: Turangalîla-Symphonie\nVENUE NOTE\nImagine an explosion of love on a cosmic scale. Mix in some 1940s Hollywood glamour, a pounding rhythmic workout and the sounds of a Javanese gamelan, and then wash it all in blissful impressionist colours. Now add a huge orchestra, a world-class pianist and a vintage electronic instrument straight out of science fiction and you’re still not even halfway to imagining Messiaen’s mind-boggling Turangalîla-Symphonie. 77 years after its premiere, it still sounds like nothing on earth.\n‘A love song, a hymn to joy, time, movement, rhythm, life and death’ was how Messiaen himself described this vast, vibrant psychedelic masterpiece, and Vasily Petrenko, star pianist Steven Osborne and a super-sized Royal Philharmonic Orchestra turn the volume up to 11. Inspired by the golden age of silent cinema, 1927 Studios – the visionary team behind the Komische Opera Berlin’s 2012 production of The Magic Flute (★★★★ The Guardian) – create an original film to play alongside the cosmic symphony. This is music that contains multitudes: every performance is a special occasion. Don’t miss this one.\n
