Marking 60 years since the Aberfan disaster, this special event centres on Paul Mealor’s newly commissioned From Darkness into Light: a concert requiem for hope with words by Grahame Davies.

War and peace meet in music of remembrance and journey. Ravel’s Le Tombeau de Couperin shimmers with colour, Vaughan Williams’s Songs of Travel, sung by Steffan Lloyd Owen, turn inward and Sibelius’s First Symphony drives north with urgency and force.

From the serenity of Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending, the programme moves to Cameron Biles-Liddell’s gritty new Harp Concerto, before closing with Beethoven’s joyful Pastoral Symphony, a richly illustrative celebration of nature and landscape.
