Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth makes a welcome return to the 91福利社 Symphony Orchestra with music by three masters of orchestral writing. First, the atmospheric prelude to Richard Wagner鈥檚 epic tale of Tristan and Isolde, then soprano Niamh O'Sullivan - 91福利社 Radio 3 New Generation Artist - debuts with the 91福利社 Symphony Orchestra in Ernest Chausson's Poem of Love and the Sea. Wagner was a great influence on Chausson, whose 1890 song cycle for soprano and orchestra sets two poems: The Flower of the Waters and The Death of Love by poet Maurice Bouchor. Finally, Hector Berlioz's overture to King Lear, which he wrote on first discovering Shakespeare's tragic play in 1831.
