BISYOC’s vibrant, energetic orchestra of 90 young players launches this concert with two North American works: John Adams’ joyful and exuberant A Short Ride in a Fast Machine contrasts with the warmth of Lauridsen’s popular choral work Sure on This Shining Night. Followed by the emotional spectrum of Tchaikovsky’s final symphony and the musically vivid choral/orchestral work from Borodin’s opera Prince Igor, the concert will finish with Delius’ lush interlude describing beauty in nature, romance and undying love.
