AUTUMN SEASON AT CADOGAN HALL Autumn at Cadogan Hall always has a jazz focus, with EFG London Jazz Festival 2016 to look forward to in November.

As a key venue for this prestigious festival Cadogan Hall hosts nine concerts between 12 November and 20 November and new for this year will be free live jazz in our Culford Room from 2.30-4.30pm. Come along pre-concert or join us to enjoy the music and atmosphere of the jazz festival. More details can be found on pages 30-33.

The autumn season is also a treat for opera fans – choose from lesser-known gems such as Hasse’s Demetrio performed by Opera Settecento or semi-staged performances of The Barber of Seville, Carmen and Borodin’s Prince Igor. A beautiful evening of music will be provided by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’s Opera Gala on 15 September.

If large scale choral works are more to your taste we also offer an interesting evening of Chinese choral music including Yellow River Cantata. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and City of London Choir join together for Mozart’s Ave Verum Corpus and Haydn’s Heiligmesse. London Concert Choir returns with Handel’s Israel in Egypt, Goldsmiths Choral Union performs Haydn’s Nelson Mass and Mozart’s Requiem, not forgetting the opportunity to hear Walton’s Belshazzar’s Feast with The London Chorus on 27 November.

Our classical music programme remains second to none. In September we welcome Valery Gergiev’s Mariinsky Orchestra performing all of Prokofiev’s symphonies and violin concertos over three concerts. Other international orchestras joining us before the end of 2016 include Brussels Philharmonic, Spanish Symphony Orchestra, Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra, Czech National Symphony Orchestra and Zurich Chamber Orchestra.

Perhaps the most enduring partnership is his musical brotherhood with Glen Campbell which produced hits Wichita Lineman, By the Time I Get to Phoenix and Galveston – just for starters.

With his trademark humour and storytelling, Webb shares anecdotes about his collaborations with Campbell, revealing the personal side to generational touchstones like Honey Come Back.

Gorgeous photos and video, and emotional virtual duets with a recorded Glen Campbell demonstrate the singular talents of these two pop icons.

Jenna Russell Emily John Owen-Jones John Matthew Seadon-Young Jackson Evelyn Hoskins May Nigel Richards Isaac Stewart Clarke Seth Melvyn Bragg narrator Andrew Linnie conductor Melvyn Bragg book and narration Howard Goodall music and lyrics

‘Johann Adolph Hasse (1699-1783) was arguably the most successful opera composer of the 18th century. Together with his favourite librettist, Pietro Metastasio, Hasse defined the genre of opera seria for an entire generation.

The greatest of his more than 60 stage works were performed in all the major musical centres of Europe and dozens of his arias were the mainstay repertoire of the leading singers of the day. Celebrated above all for his melodic gift and the supreme elegance of his vocal writing, Hasse was held by the contemporary English music critic and historian Charles Burney to be ‘superior to all other lyric composers’.’ Dr Brian D. Stewart, Opera Today

Howard Goodall and Melvyn Bragg’s powerful musical tale of labour and love receives its first major concert presentation in over 20 years, narrated by the author himself.

Tickets: £40, £36, £32, £28

Set in the agricultural and industrial heartlands of Cumbria at the turn of the 20th century, The Hired Man follows the paths of John and Emily Tallentire as they go from two young lovers, setting off in married life together, to parents struggling to eke out an existence for their family as war looms across the continent.

A stellar West End cast, live orchestra and stunning projections promise to make this an unforgettable evening.

Brussels Philharmonic’s programme tonight gives focus to French composer Guillaume Connesson, recognised as one of the youngest and most gifted contemporary composers of today and a firm favourite of Stéphane Denève, who has remarked on his ‘amazing orchestration… the quality of writing for large orchestra on the level of a Ravel or Stravinsky!’ Connesson’s short and sharp Flammenschrift (Letter of fire), written by Connesson with Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony in mind, is furious, lively and full of colour.

Ukrainian pianist Natacha Kudritskaya makes a rare UK appearance in a programme featuring the world’s most famous piano concerto and its most iconic symphony.

Internationally recognised as one of Russia’s most prestigious and versatile orchestras, the Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra returns to Cadogan Hall with Vladimir Fedoseyev to perform an intense and uplifting programme of Russian masterpieces.

Conducted by acclaimed ENO Mackerras Fellow Toby Purser, the Orion Orchestra performs with characteristic passion and energy, drawing its members from the best of London’s music college students and graduates.

Pavel Kolesnikov, at the tender age of 27, has quickly become a critics’ favourite. Following his debut concert in 2014, the Telegraph gave his recital a rare five-star review and called it ‘one of the most memorable of such occasions London has witnessed in a while’. He joins the orchestra to perform Tchaikovsky’s deeply romantic and soulful Piano Concerto No. 1.

The concert concludes with Tchaikovsky’s passionate final symphony, which he reportedly considered to be his best and most sincere work.

The Lover, Beloved Tour

Pioneering American singer/songwriter Suzanne Vega returns to the UK with her brand new tour Lover, Beloved.

Wagner Tannhäuser Overture Chopin Piano Concerto No. 2 Beethoven Symphony No. 4

One of contemporary music’s most iconic singer/songwriters, Suzanne Vega, celebrates the remarkable life of another distinguished writer, Carson McCullers, when she releases a new studio album inspired by the novelist, entitled Lover, Beloved: Songs from an Evening with Carson McCullers in October 2016.

Elizabeth Sombart piano Pierre Vallet conductor

Lover, Beloved is a collection of ten songs from the musical Lover, Beloved: An Evening With Carson McCullers. In the play McCullers is shown at two historical moments that bookend her career as she movingly reflects on her life and work. The songs, which she co-wrote with long-time friend and theatrical collaborator Duncan Sheik, richly capture the essence of McCuller’s insightful words and forward-thinking philosophies on gender and love.

Tickets: £34.50 Gold Circle tickets: £44.50

In typical Wagnerian style, the Tannhäuser Overture encapsulates the drama of this greatly admired opera with its quasi-Bach chorale opening and dazzling, tormenting middle.

Composed at the mere age of 20, Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 2 harks back to the likes of Hummel and Mozart whilst including Chopin’s patriotic hallmark, as the finale inhabits the world of Polish folk music.

The concert finishes with Beethoven’s sunny and joyous Fourth Symphony.

Like each musician, every instrument in the orchestra has its own personality and stories to tell. Some are extrovert and excitable, rushing to share tales of action and adventure.

Others are more laid back, preferring to keep you on the edge of your seat as they slowly let the tension build and build. Here the spotlight is shone on a selection of them as we explore concertos, delving into some juicy musical conversations between the soloist and the supporting orchestra!

With 33 electrifying young players as your guides, you can also expect dramatic lighting effects and big screen projections that help to take you right inside the orchestra and the music being played. After the concert you can meet the musicians and try out some of their instruments in Cadogan Hall’s foyer.

Including movements from: Mendelssohn Violin Concerto Hummel Trumpet Concerto Arnold Clarinet Concerto No. 1 Haydn Cello Concerto No. 1 Ideal for children aged 5 – 11.

Vaughan Williams’ lyrical masterpiece The Lark Ascending and Elgar’s elegaic Cello Concerto need no introduction but the relatively less well known Stuart Jones’ Symphony in F will be a revelation to audiences who are new to this composer’s works.

Byrd Laetentur caeli Taverner Missa Western Wind Davy Salve regina Byrd Salve regina Tallis Lamentations 1 Ferrabosco Lamentations Byrd Vigilate Peter Phillips director This all-English programme of Renaissance masterpieces is a kind of Byrd sandwich. It features some very famous music by Tallis and Taverner, while showcasing a tour-de-force from the Eton Choirbook by Richard Davy alongside a beautiful set of Lamentations by the adopted English composer (and possible spy) Alfonso Ferrabosco.

Taverner’s Missa Western Wind is really a set of (36) variations on a theme which is so catchy one never tires of singing it. The whole set is a tribute to Taverner’s astonishing powers of invention and rare in that there was no precedent in his time for basing a sacred composition on a secular theme.

Mendelssohn Piano Concerto No. 1 Walton Henry V (arr. Christopher Palmer) Bertrand Chamayou piano Choir and narrator tba Christopher Warren-Green conductor What links Mendelssohn and Walton?

A love of Shakespeare, whose 400th anniversary falls in 2016. Mendelssohn’s enthusiasm found voice with his overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, written when he was just 16. As a mature composer he returned to the play and added further numbers that recapture his youthful style.

Similarly bucolic is Mendelssohn’s First Piano Concerto, which channels the spirit of Mozart. Walton’s music for Henry V perfectly complements Laurence Olivier’s 1944 film, but it was Christopher Palmer who developed an extended version that melds music and dialogue, bringing the drama fully alive.

Free early concert at 7pm in the auditorium: LCO soloists perform excerpts from Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream arranged for string quartet.

Tickets: £40, £30, £20, £10

What better way to open the concert than with Mozart’s Don Giovanni Overture, full of orchestral gravitas and oomph.

Also joined by vivacious pianist Alexandra Dariescu, the programme includes Mozart’s immensely popular and influential Piano Concerto No. 20, his exquisite Ave Verum Corpus and Haydn’s majestic and moving Heiligmesse.

This concert shows off the classical choral tradition at its best.

Borodin Prince Igor

Berlioz Le Corsaire Overture Chen Gang/ He Zhanhao The Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto Saint-Saëns Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso Dvořák Symphony No. 9 (From the New World)

Jessica Cottis conductor Borodin based his Prince Igor on a 12thcentury Russian epic. The opera tells a story of heroism and treachery during Igor’s campaign against the invading Polovtsian tribes. Borodin worked on the opera on and off for 18 years and left it unfinished at his death in 1887. It was completed by RimskyKorsakov and Glazunov and given its first performance three years later. This is a rare opportunity to hear one of the greatest Russian operas whose beautiful music includes the much-loved Polovtsian Dances.

Concert performance in English.

John Nelson conductor Yi-Jia Susanne Hou violin Berlioz’s concert overture is remarkable for its rhythmic verve and energy. Composed while holidaying in Nice, this exuberant seascape evokes the play of wind, sea and waves.

From French beaches to the Orient, Chen Gang/He Zhanhao’s programmatic Violin Concerto encapsulates ancient China with its use of oriental sonorities and techniques.

This beautiful work is played here by Yi-Jia Susanne Hou, who was praised by worldrenowned virtuoso Yehudi Menuhin as ‘absolutely phenomenal’.

The lively showpiece Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso is followed by the perennial favourite, Dvořák’s New World Symphony.

Ben Waters wanted to put together a band that recreated early rock ‘n’ roll. Being a lifelong Fats Domino fan since seeing him on TV, Waters fell in love with not just the music, but the good feeling it created, the rolling, rollicking sounds of early piano-based R’n‘R where Boogie Woogie meets R’n‘B and the hard hitting rhythms of the pre-Bill Hayley era which launched a new wave of excitement in world music.

Ben Waters is widely regarded as the Rock ‘n Roll pianist in town, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, Chuck Berry and many more have used his high energy piano playing, Even piano gods Jools Holland and Hugh Laurie have booked him for themselves, so we should be in for a good night at Cadogan Hall!
