The Bells Revival

On Thursday 6 November, theatre producers Fiery Angel celebrated their 25th anniversary.  The cabaret at the Bloomsbury Ballroom also raised £30,000 for the new charity Second Stage. 

There were no phone screens, no sotto voce conversations, no fidgeting, as a packed Hall watched the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra in rapt appreciation. Each instrument had its moment. The dual harps added a cool clarity, the double basses a morose touch, the trombones a sweet elegance. This was a vibrant reading of a modern classic in expert hands.

Miller Auditorium will welcome COLD CASE LIVE and the CELTIC WOMAN WHITE CHRISTMAS SYMPHONY TOUR.

BIS Records will release a recording of Gustav Mahler's Eighth Symphony. Recorded under the direction of Osmo Vänskä, the Orchestra's music director from 2003 to 2022, the album marks the ninth and penultimate release in the Orchestra's years-long effort to perform and record all ten of the Romantic composer's symphonies.

Lyrical season will have 11 titles, including the premiere of O Machete, by Mehmari. Throughout 2023, will be presented of Il Seraglio, by Mozart, Cinderella, by Viardot, The Cunning Little Vixen, by Janácek, Dido and Eneas, by Purcell, among others. The program also includes ballet shows, symphonic and chamber music concerts.

In recognition of the cultural contributions Ukraine has made to the world throughout its history, Art on theMART is hosting an eight-day showing of Shchedryk - Carol of The Bells: Unwrap the Holiday Magic, a holiday-themed projection spotlighting the work of Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych, who arranged the melody of “Carol of The Bells” in 1916.

One of the best shows of the season, MAKE THEM HEAR YOU leaves a lasting impression.
