Ludwig Göransson Oppenheimer: Suite (UK premiere)
Takemitsu Spirit Garden
John Adams Doctor Atomic Symphony

An unmissable event for film music fans, this concert boasts the UK premiere of Ludwig Göransson’s Oscar-winning Suite from Oppenheimer, performed by the RCM Philharmonic under the direction of Ben Palmer.

The film’s themes are echoed in the dramatic Doctor Atomic Symphony by John Adams, and there is serene contrast in the form of Takemitsu’s luminous Spirit Garden, one of his last works. Takemitsu drew a parallel between his orchestral style and the nature of a garden: both are ‘composed of various different elements and sophisticated details that converge to form a harmonious whole’.
