Maxwell Davies: Symphony No. 6; Time And The Raven; Wedding With Sunrise / Royal Philharmonic
Sir Peter Maxwell Daviesâs passionate Sixth Symphony is dedicated to the memory of the writer George Mackay Brown, with the âvery special musical virtuosityâ of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in mind. It is one of his most beautifully expressive works and, whilst not untroubled, reaches moments of serene beauty. Composed for the 50th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, Time and the Raven is a brilliant and exciting collage, whilst few contemporary works enjoy such popularity as the magical An Orkney Wedding with Sunrise.
