1. The Hallé & Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus
Delyana Lazarova, winner of the inaugural Siemens Hallé International Conductor’s Competition, begins this concert with Debussy’s sensuous evocation of the poet Mallarmé’s dreams and desires of a faun. Delyana then directs the massed forces of the Hallé, Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus, a rising RNCM star and the stunning mezzo-soprano, Hanna Hipp, in Lili Boulanger’s ominous setting of Psalm 130, widely believed to be a reaction to the outbreak of World War One. Sheffield treasure, Darius Battiwalla, pulls out all the stops in music by Saint-Saёns. His first published organ work, Fantaisie, has two contrasting movements: one, full of elegance and charm and the other, strong and confident. The concert concludes with his monumental, fascinatingly-textured “Organ” Symphony.

2. The Hallé
Andrew Manze is well-known as a leading interpreter and one of the composer’s biggest advocates of Vaughan Williams, a composer with whom he has a particularly close affinity. He conducts the Hallé’s performance of several of Vaughan Williams’ much-loved pieces, including his Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis and Fifth Symphony. He will also be joined by Roberto Ruisi, Leader of the Hallé and sought-after soloist in his own right, for The Lark Ascending. Considered revolutionary in the years following its composition thanks to its rhythmic flow and musical imagery, the solo violin acts as the songbird and the orchestra as the rolling landscape beneath it. Upon hearing the opening of Vaughan Williams’ Fifth Symphony, Andrew Manze was ‘instantly captivated by its magic’. (Presto Music)

7. Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra
Since his first appearance with the brilliant Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra, Carlo Tenan has become a frequent guest conductor of this distinctive ensemble. Now in post as its newly-appointed Artistic Director, he brings Turkey’s leading orchestra to the Sheffield International Concert Series for the first time with two perennially popular symphonies, Schubert’s tragic “Unfinished” and Beethoven’s idyllic “Pastoral”. The concert also includes the fiery creation by the great 20th century Turkish composer Ferit Tüzün. Composed when he was still studying in Germany in the 1950s, Humoresque (Nasreddin Hoca) is considered to be among one of his most important works. “Pop-idol magnetism, superb technique and exhilarating musicality reveal a sure star in the making” is how the Los Angeles Times described cellist Pablo Ferrández. He brings his glorious sound and effortless charisma to Saint-Saëns’ passionate First Cello Concerto.
