BBCNOW/ Bancroft/ Gerhardt review – intriguing connections, magic and melancholy beauty

🎵 just saw the BBC National Orchestra of Wales performance last night and i'm still reeling from the experience 🤯! ryan bancroft is a genius conductor, he really knows how to bring out the best in his musicians. and Anders Hillborg's "Exquisite Corpse" is like nothing i've ever heard before - it's like this crazy game of musical telephone where everyone contributes but you can still feel the individual threads throughout 🌈

i loved how they wove together sibelius' lemminkäinen suite with that swedish composer's piece, it was like a dream come true for my musical soul 😊. and gerhardt's performance in shostakovich's cello concerto? chills all around 🎶

it just goes to show how powerful collaboration and experimentation can be in music - it's not just about the individual artists, but about what they can create together when they're on the same wavelength 🔥. can't wait to see what they do next! 😃
 
🎵 I mean, can you believe we're living in an age where classical music is actually exciting again? 🤩 It's crazy how Hillborg's "Exquisite Corpse" brought together these different pieces like a beautiful puzzle. And that soloist Gerhardt was 🔥 I loved how they incorporated the narrative threads from Sibelius' suite into the performance - it added such depth to the music. But what really got me is how this whole thing showcases the magic of collaboration in music 🤝. It's like, we're living in a world where artists can come together and create something totally new and amazing 💥. I'm all for nostalgia, but sometimes you gotta appreciate the innovation too 😊.
 
😂🎵 I mean, can you imagine if Anders Hillborg had a Bandcamp page? "Consequences"-titled EPs would be all the rage! 🤣 But seriously, who knew that combining classical music with surrealist art could result in something so mesmerizing? It's like the orchestra was playing a game of " Musical Mad Libs" and it just worked! 💥 The way they wove together those different pieces was pure magic. I'm no conductor, but even I can tell when an orchestra is "conducting" themselves to greatness 🎵😊
