UPROAR Ligeti’s Chamber Concerto & New Music from Wales

UPROAR Ligeti’s Chamber Concerto & New Music from Wales

UPROAR’s ensemble of 16 virtuoso soloists continues to push the boundaries of classical music, performing new music from Wales alongside work by international composers, whose music is rarely performed here. 

The Chamber Concerto by Ligeti (whose music features in the films 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Shining) gets its Welsh Premiere, as does Hrím, Anna Thorvaldsdottir’s potent evocation of elemental power. 

For the new Welsh commissions, Litang Shao explores the sounds, energies and emotions evoked by the unpredictable nature of the sea, incorporating the musical elements and flavour of traditional Chinese music. Ashley John Long captures the echoes and whispers of the rolling hillsides of the Welsh landscape. And in contrast, David John Roche takes inspiration from the heavy metal and rock scene in the Welsh Valleys as he was growing up.
