Manchester Contemporary Orchestra

Programme ?liane Radigue Elemental I (electronic work) + New works by RNCM Composers: Performers Mark Heron, Davide Trolton, Mariacostanza D?Agostino, Reuben Brown, Elisabeth Streichert conductors Manchester Contemporary Orchestra? About Manchester Contemporary Orchestra reflects the bold evolution of compositional voices at the RNCM. No longer confined to traditional orchestral formats, today?s composers explore a wider range of ensemble configurations, often incorporating electronics and expanded instrumentation. Manchester Contemporary Orchestra mirrors this shift, providing a dynamic platform for students to experiment with large-scale forces in new and unexpected ways. Across three events each year, these concerts offer a front-row seat to fearless, original music fresh off the page, shaped by a city and conservatoire rooted in the radical legacy of the Manchester School. This evening?s performance draws inspiration from the elements: air, fire, earth, and water. At its centre is ?liane Radigue?s work, featuring her field recordings from the natural world. ?
