2 HELLO Welcome to the season with BBC National Orchestra & Chorus of Wales, a season made all the more special as we celebrate the Orchestra s 90th anniversary in April. Over the past 90 years Wales national orchestra has given incredible performances to millions of people across the country. We ve performed over 100 newly commissioned works, shared Wales s music to audiences around the world through our broadcasts and concerts; supported upcoming composers through Composition: Wales; and recorded the soundtracks to some of the BBC s best-loved shows. Through our ground-breaking learning work, we have brought orchestral music alive to children and young people in schools, special schools, and in the community, opening the doors to the next generation of music fans. To help us celebrate the last 90 years we ll be joined by some of our closest friends, showcasing the best of what we do, including: Beethoven 9 with Xian Zhang, Cardiff & Swansea Sibelius 5 with Thomas Søndergård, Cardiff & Swansea Debussy s La Mer with Jac van Steen, Cardiff Bruckner 7 with Joseph Swensen, Swansea At home in BBC Hoddinott Hall, Composerin-Association Huw Watkins shares the music that shaped him as both a composer and performer and we look back at some of the works that have been commissioned for BBC NOW over the years. And there s another celebration as Conductor Laureate Tadaaki Otaka marks 30 years with BBC NOW, as well as his 70th birthday, with two Elgar-focused concerts in December. Before that, we join with arts organisations across Wales for Russia 17 marking the centenary of the Russian Revolution through a season of events capturing the social and cultural explosion of the era and discovering Wales historic connections with the Russia of the time.
