DEBUSSY: La mer

Dive into a program where the sea meets romance in waves of musical brilliance. Debussy’s La mer gives the sea a voice as it conjures waves, winds, and the shimmering play of light on water. Opening the program, discover Arnold Bax’s Tintagel, which brings to life the crashing waves and eerie beauty of a legendary castle perched by the sea.

Then, be swept off your feet with Mendelssohn’s Piano Concerto No. 1, full of flirtatious energy. Debussy’s Petite Suite will transport you to a world of aristocratic leisure with its whimsical charm, flowing rhythms, and ripples of a grand dance.
