Takemitsu Night Signal from Signals from Heaven
Takemitsu’s Signals from Heaven frame this RCM Brass Ensemble concert, with instruments split into two antiphonal fanfares.
Directed by RCM Head of Brass Amos Miller, the performance also features colourful fanfares by Cassie Kinoshi and RCM alumna Elisabeth Lutyens alongside Strauss’ cheerful work dedicated to the city of Vienna. In contrast, Takemitsu’s eight-minute meditation Garden Rain provides a moment of calm.
