The extremes of life - and the music: join us in celebrating our new chief conductor with Stravinsky's festive firework music - and face death with Strauss's fearless depiction of the final journey.

Poetic and expressive, Strauss describes the very last moments of life in Tod und Verklärung . His music depicts the pain, the unfulfilled dreams – and the overwhelming ecstasy when the soul is finally set free in the perfection of the afterlife. Strauss's depiction of the beauty of life and death is nothing short of magnificent.
