About
Aurora Orchestra bring a freshness and vitality to their music-making that is perfectly suited to a programme of exuberance and eloquence.
Nothing lifts the spirits quite like the opening of Mendelssohn's symphony, which bursts into life with an irrepressible energy that could lift you off your feet. The composer once referred to it as 'blue sky in A major' and these postcards in sound from an epic 10-month foreign tour seem drenched in Mediterranean sunshine. Prokofiev's concerto, written on the cusp of his resettlement in the Soviet Union, melds exquisite surface beauty with dark foreboding in his gripping, emotionally-charged concerto.
