BEETHOVEN Symphony No.6 JANÁČEK Glagolitic Mass DINIS SOUSA conductor EVELINA DOBRAČEVA soprano KATARINA KARNÉUS mezzo-soprano ALEŠ BRISCEIN tenor JAN MARTINÍK bass DANIEL GREENWAY organ ROYAL LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC CHOIR “The fragrance of the trees was like incense,” declared Leoš Janáček, “I felt a cathedral grow from a great forest”. And with its jubilant trumpets, thundering organ and raw, unbuttoned lust for life, there’s nothing quite like the Glagolitic Mass. It’s an ear-tingling, soul-shaking adventure of a lifetime for the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir and fastrising guest conductor Dinis Sousa – and there’s no better way to set the mood than with Beethoven’s leafiest (and loveliest) symphony.
