This film was specially commissioned by Britten Pears Arts for a Halloween themed event at The Red House, focused on Britten’s supernatural and spooky operas. This video features a new arrangement of the prelude to Britten’s opera Owen Wingrave. The music was arranged and performed by the Slide Action, a Trombone Quartet in the 21-22 cohort of Britten Pears Young Artist Programme. The video and audio was created by Slide Action themselves and filmed onsite at Snape Maltings.

Britten Oliver Knussen Colin McPhee Sarah Lewis Aldeburgh Festival 1956 2015
Britten’s trip to Bali in 1956 made a very strong impression on him. As David Attenborough remembers in this video, Britten was said to have been able to navigate his way across the island by recognising the subtle differences between the musical styles of the gamelan performances that were a feature of daily life in every village. On his return to the UK, Britten wrote his only full-length ballet, The Prince of the Pagodas, a piece filled with the sounds he encountered in Bali, mixed with lusciously Romantic, glittering orchestral textures. At the 2015 Aldeburgh Festival we present a four-part exploration of the piece: (http•••) Sunday 28 June, 4pm On the final day of the Festival, Sunday 28 June, Oliver Knussen conducts the Britten–Pears Orchestra (in their follow-up to Peter Grimes and Owen Wingrave) in concert extracts of the ballet, performed alongside stunning gamelan music written for orchestra by American composer and ethnomusicologist Colin McPhee.

See the results on Sunday 28 June just before the BPO concert. (http•••)
