We are starting the new season at full steam ahead. Arthur Honegger's Pacific 231 is a fast-paced hymn to the invention of the express train locomotive. Beethoven's ERSTE sets off for new shores and ignites a firework display full of crazy musical ideas. Till Eulenspiegel is audibly breathless at the end of his cheeky pranks and at the end we dance ourselves into ecstasy with Ravel's Boléro.
