WEBER Freischu?tz Overture HINDEMITH Weber Metamorphosis MESSIAEN Les Offrandes Oubliées DEBUSSY La Mer
Christoph König leads a programme of four works by four composers, two German and two French, all original and influential figures. From each composer we hear one of his most famous and most important works, providing listeners with a musical feast indeed, from Weber’s stirring overture to the opera Der Freischu?tz to Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphoses (derived from themes by Weber) to Messiaen’s inspired Offrandes oubliées (Forgotten Offerings) to one of the most thrilling seascapes in all music, Debussy’s La Mer.
