KuanFen and the orchestra will take us on a trip to destinations in Europe, America and even the Universe!
We will experience these destinations through inspirations of Mendelsohn, Copland and Vaughan Williams. The images will be formed in our minds, not by being there or seeing pictures, but by the brush of music.
Our trip will experience an archipelago off the west coast of Scotland as well as sights of Italy (Mendelssohn) and America (Copland) and the movement of the celestial bodies (Ralph Vaughan Williams).
