Programme

The Barcelona Symphony Orchestra (OBC) is travelling around Catalonia with conductor Joseph Bastian and baritone Josep-Ramon Olivé as soloist.

The programme presents four early-twentieth-century works with very divergent aesthetics. Firstly, the incisive Ma mère l’oye (Mother Goose) by French composer Maurice Ravel, sets some of Charles Perrault’s stories to music. This is followed by Joan Lamote de Grignon’s Poema romàntic (Romantic Poem), with which the orchestra commemorates the 75th anniversary of his death, a piece which evokes amorous sentiments with Shakespearean influences.

In the second part, Gustav Mahler’s The Boy’s Magic Horn will be performed. This song cycle draws on the collection of German popular poetry of the same name published in the early nineteenth century, which greatly influenced the entire Romantic movement. The concert closes with The Firebird Suite, sensational music by a young, previously unknown, Igor Stravinsky, his very first commission for Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes.
