| Description |
Basses are Loaded - Prokofiev saw his utterly great Fifth Symphony as 'the culmination of a long period of my creative life' describing 'the grandeur of the human spirit'. Few who hear it can resist the passionate work's forceful gestures, expansive melodies and its exuberant finale. Sydney Symphony Principal Double Bassist, Alex Henery and Kees Boersma collaborate in a rare performance of Giovanni Bottesini's virtuoso showpiece for two double bass. |
