About This Event

In the second year of their Festival residency, the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales performs two major works featuring 鈥渃odes鈥 in music, Shostakovich鈥檚 Cello Concerto no. 1, with its theme taken from a musical cryptogram of the composer鈥檚 initials, and Elgar鈥檚 Enigma Variations, featuring Last Night of the Proms favourite 鈥淣imrod鈥, arguably his best-known work. The programme celebrates a second quintessentially British work, Elgar鈥檚 sumptuous song cycle Sea Pictures.
