Bramwell Tovey showcases his multiple talents on this exciting programme. Andrew McCandless, the spectacularly gifted Principal Trumpet of the TSO, takes the spotlight for the world première of a concerto that Tovey composed expressly for him. The Maestro also conducts Dvořák Ninth Symphony, a piece that this Czech composer created while living in New York. Spiced with African-American and Aboriginal influences, it also gives voice to the nostalgic longing he felt for his homeland.
