Aurora Orchestra: New Moves 2012 series trailer
Released: 16.12.2011 | Duration: 3:46
Aurora's pioneering cross-arts 'New Moves' series was launched at LSO St Luke's in 2010. The series aims to celebrate young talent, ignite dialogue between art forms, and reach new audiences for classical music. Re-inventing the orchestral concert for an era in which the boundaries of musical style and artistic disciplines have become ever more porous, the 2012 series has attracted critical acclaim, with a recent Times review noting: "In a city suffocating with musical activity, Nicholas Collon's Aurora Orchestra lets in more fresh air than most. The aim is to make an audience hear anew, not by sugaring any pills, not by didactic explanation, not by light-shows, but by context... I was gripped from start to finish. And the music was performed to exquisite perfection." 2012 New Moves events include: LOVE SONG FOR THE CITY Roundhouse, 25 February Strauss / Gordon / Bernstein with film by Bill Morrison FAR, FAR AWAY LSO St Luke's, 13 March Wagner / Anderson / Copland With five-piece folk band Harry Oakwood BATTLE LSO St Luke's, 13 July Biber / Holst / Shostakovich / Philips With breakdance from Bboy's Attic and Company Decalage KLEZMAHLER LSO St Luke's, 18 November Mahler / Klezmer With special klezmer guests to be announced

Günter Wand - BRUCKNER: Symphony No.5
Released: 26.09.2011 | Duration: 2:06
A clip from the ICA Classics DVD. Renowned for his interpretations of Bruckner's Symphonies, Günter Wand had a great affinity for Bruckner's Fifth Symphony, as noted by the composer Bernd Alois Zimmermann. His first recording of the work became a great success, winning the German Record Prize in 1978. Wand's London concerts with the BBC Symphony as Principal Guest Conductor acquired legendary status in his later years, rewarding him with the recognition that was so greatly deserved.
