Waltzes in Disorder/Slow Airs Almost All/The Signal of a Shake

The evening opens with Waltzes in Disorder, set to Brahms' delicious Liebeslieder Walzer - music that delights in the pure pleasure of singing. To the rich harmonies of four voices and piano. Alston has created full-throttle dancing of both melting tenderness and wild abandon. The sweet untrammelled lyricism of Mozart adagios for string trio - played live - form the heart of Slow Airs Almost All, described by the Financial Times as "Alston at his very best". Finally, the sheer and unadulterated pleasures of Handel's concerti for organ and orchestra get the whole company on the move in the joyous, celebratory The Signal of a Shake.
