Programme Note

Beauty and cruelty in nature.  Tuneful birds and deadly spiders.  Soloist Eleanor Turner weaves a charming web in Patterson's Concerto for Harp and Strings.  Respighi brings baroque imitations of bird song to today's chamber orchestra, and Rousell's ballet music gives insects very human emotions with a surprising twist (spoiler alert!).  Mozart of course transcends all these earthly concerns.
