SUMMARY:Red Ink with Leon Bosch
DESCRIPTION:Bristol Ensemble\nLeon Bosch director/double bass \nBritten Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge\nBarber Adagio for Strings\nWoodborne Red Ink\nElgar Introduction and Allegro \nLeon Bosch has built an international career as a performer and conductor and is one of the few double bass players to conduct chamber and symphonic ensembles directly from the instrument. A prolific recording artist with twenty solo albums\, he is also a committed advocate for new music\, collaborating with contemporary composers to expand and diversify the double bass repertoire. \nRed Ink was commissioned by the Matseer Diabelli Sommer festival and is dedicated to the bassist Leon Bosch. \nThis concerto serves as a musical memorial to the Soweto Uprising of 1976 in South Africa\, an event that marked a turning point in the fight against apartheid but which came at a devastating human cost. \nThe work’s structure follows a clear program\, capturing the emotional essence of that day: \n1. The Dawn of a Fateful Day\n2. Confrontation and Tragedy\n3. A Song of Mourning \nTickets are available from St George’s Bristol box office online\, by phone on 0117 929 4929 and over the counter at St George’s.
