RLPO at the Glasshouse!
Today we’re performing again with the RLPO at the Glasshouse in Gateshead!
“We are delighted to welcome Classic FM’s John Suchet to The Glasshouse as part of the Big Bruckner Weekend line up. Bruckner fan John will compère the weekend and will give a selection of talks and thoughts across the three days.
He had this to say about joining us:
“I am honoured and thrilled to be presenting the Big Bruckner Weekend at The Glasshouse. Here is a composer who has lived for too long in the shadow of his great contemporaries, and whose moment has come, as we look forward to the 200th anniversary of his birth next September. The original creator of the wall of sound, to hear his three final symphonies performed by three of the country’s finest orchestras, as well as the Great Mass and choral works, will be a unique opportunity to immerse ourselves in some of the most magnificent music ever written.”
