Cian Ciarán Presents: Rhys & Meinir
Hoddinott Hall
Millennium Centre, Cardiff Bay, Cardiff
United Kingdom

Cian Ciarán
BBCNOW

For 20 years and counting a member of Super Furry Animals, Cian Ciarán comes together with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales. The World premiere performance of a work that has been almost two-decades in development features a full 84 piece orchestra and Cian Ciarán’s Rhys & Meinir promises a rare, aural experience that encapsulates the drama of ancient Welsh folklore, the envisioned splendour of rural Wales and the innate, musical curiosity of the intrepid composer.

Rhys and Meinir found love in the village of Nant Gwrtheyrn, North Wales and their childhood romance blossomed for all to see. On the day of their marriage, Meinir is nowhere to be found and the mystery leads Rhys into months of despair. When finally a thunder strike reveals Meinir’s final hiding place, Rhys is unable to live a second longer.

Curated by John Woolrich

Get to know Luciano Berio; one of the towering musical personalities of the post-war avantgarde, who constantly reinvented musical sound and form. His music drew inspiration from and reworked the vernacular of folk, pop and other classical music and indeed his own compositions. The London Sinfonietta collaborated a great deal with Berio during the 1970s and 1980s, helping both ensemble and composer to establish an international reputation.

BBC Philharmonic

Completed at the end of 2016 and premiered by tonight’s soloist in the US in January, Sally Beamish’s potent and political new piece was written in response to Beethoven’s immaculate First Piano Concerto. You can trace connections between the works when pianist Jonathan Biss performs them both tonight. Brett Dean’s Testament also takes Beethoven as its inspiration, drawing on the composer’s desperate frustration with his growing deafness, while Elgar’s ever-cherished ‘Enigma’ Variations pays homage to his friends and family.


Brett Dean : Testament
Ludwig Van Beethoven : Piano Concerto No 1 in C major
Sally Beamish : Piano Concerto no. 3 "City Stanzas"

Hailed as “one of the great amateur choruses of our time (New York Today) for its “full-bodied sound and suppleness (The New York Times),” The Dessoff Choirs kick-starts its 93rd season with Multidimensional Magnificence: a one-night only multimedia performance at Harlem’s Riverside Church inspired by the many concerts produced by American composer/conductor Gregg Smith.
