OSN: musiche ispirate all'acqua per Juraj Valčuha con l'Orchestra Rai

From the Rai Arturo Toscanini Auditorium, conductor Juraj Valčuha presents the Rai premiere in Turin of Jean Sibelius’s Symphonic Poem Op. 73, *Aallottaret* (The Oceanides), followed by the *Four Sea Interludes* from Benjamin Britten’s masterpiece *Peter Grimes*. In the second half of the programme, the mood shifts with two masterpieces of extreme expressive power: the Concert Suite from Béla Bartók’s one-act pantomime The Miraculous Mandarin and Maurice Ravel’s La valse, composed between 1919 and 1920, when Europe was attempting to emerge from the ruins of the Great War.
