    Description

    North meets south, dark meets light, and believe us: sparks will fly. Imagine the Earth and the Sun as seen from the Moon; an eclipse in reverse, and the deep shadows and unimagined colours as solar rays glow and flex. That’s the idea behind Antiphaser; an astonishing new concerto for electric violin from the imagination of Mexican composer Enrico Chapela, unleashed today by one of the most adventurous of British violinists, Chloë Hanslip. (BBC co-commission)

    Performers BBC SSO, Chloë Hanslip, Mihhail Gerts
    Promoter BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra
