Chester Philharmonic's final "High Five"

Guest appearance by Craig Ogden

Add to my Calendar 18-11-2017 19:30 18-11-2017 21:30 36 Chester Philharmonic's final "High Five" Guitarist Craig Ogden makes a return visit to Chester Cathedral as Chester Philharmonic’s special guest in a performance of Ponce’s Concierto del Sul. This first concert of Chester Philharmonic’s new season on Saturday 18th November @ 7.30 actually completes last season’s theme with the fifth in the “High Five” concert series featuring a performance of Mahler’s exotic Fifth Symphony. This work’s fourth movement, the well known ‘Adagietto’, originally written as a love song for Alma, Mahler’s wife, and featured in Visconti’s film “Death in Venice” is arguably Mahler’s best known music. You will also hear music by Schreker. Both Ponce and Shreker, early twentieth century contemporaries of Mahler write exquisite and tuneful music. The conductor is Stephen Threlfall. Tickets priced at £16; £12 and £9 are available from the Cathedral Booking office on 01244 500959 or from www.chesterphilorchestra.co.uk Chester Cathedral, Chester DD/MM/YYYY
