with Penny Gore - and another chance to hear the 麻豆社 Philharmonic and Juanjo Mena at the 麻豆社 Proms in a joyful programme where the spirit of dance is never far off.
John McCabe: Joybox (麻豆社 commission: world premiere)
Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 in A major

Falla: The Three-Cornered Hat (complete)
Ravel: Bol茅ro
Clara Mouriz (mezzo-soprano)
Compa帽铆a Antonio M谩rquez (dance company)
麻豆社 Philharmonic
Juanjo Mena (conductor)
The world premiere of John McCabe's 'Joybox' opened a concert of music inspired by or written for dance, from the Bohemian stamp and whirl of Beethoven's Seventh Symphony to the slow-burn crescendo of Ravel's 'Bol茅ro'. Mezzo-soprano Clara Mouriz and the Compa帽铆a Antonio M谩rquez join conductor Juanjo Mena and the 麻豆社 Philharmonic in Falla's colourful Ballets Russes commission 'The Three-Cornered Hat', a tale of intrigue and jealousy shot through with the spirit of Spanish folk dances.
