Street Song

The expressive range and versatility of the wind ensemble is exemplified in
this program from one of the world's leading ensembles of its kind, which
presents classics of the genre alongside new works. Wayne Oquin's Tower
Ascending pulsates with urban power whilst Richard Lorenz explores a web of
Latin American music. Michael Tilson Thomas distils old and new perspectives
and James Mobberely offers affecting Words of Love. We also hear Copland's
indelible Fanfare for the Common Man, Vaughan Williams's intricate Toccata
Marziale and Stravinsky's brilliantly virtuosic Concerto.
