I still hear these patronising (and defeatist) ideas repeated depressingly frequently.Everything we do with this orchestra is grounded in the exact\u00a0opposite of these ideas &#8211; our young musicians adore this repertoire and I can testify that they played the socks off it! It was particularly thrilling to watch them fall in love, en masse, with the Revueltas, Messiaen and Korngold. Coming in 2014: &#8220;Zarathustra&#8221;, Metamorphosen, and premieres by Turnage and Charlotte Bray!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Best wishes, and Happy New Year,<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Richard<\/div>\n<div><strong>Debussy:<\/strong>\u00a0La Mer (Ilan Volkov)<\/div>\n<div><strong>Korngold:<\/strong>\u00a0Much Ado About Nothing &#8211; suite (Michael Seal)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51473\"><strong>Messiaen:<\/strong>\u00a0Poemes pour Mi (Ilan Volkov \/ Allison Bell)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51504\"><strong>Mozart:<\/strong>\u00a0Symphony No.36 &#8220;Linz&#8221; (Michael Seal)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51505\"><strong>Ravel:<\/strong>\u00a0Piano Concerto for the Left Hand (Andrew Litton \/ Jean-Efflam Bavouzet)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51506\"><strong>Ravel:\u00a0<\/strong>Mother Goose &#8211; ballet (Michael Seal)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51507\"><strong>Revueltas:<\/strong>\u00a0Homenaje a F D Lorca (Michael Seal)<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51508\"><strong>Sibelius:<\/strong>\u00a0Symphony No.5<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1388510344671_51509\"><strong>Mahler:<\/strong>\u00a0Symphony No.5 (Andrew Litton)<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"wp_fb_like_button\" style=\"margin:5px 0;float:none;height:100px;\"><script src=\"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\"><\/script><fb:like href=\"https:\/\/kennethwoods.net\/blog1\/2014\/01\/01\/repertoire-report-cbso-youth-orchestra-2013\/\" send=\"false\" layout=\"box_count\" width=\"450\" show_faces=\"true\" font=\"arial\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"light\"><\/fb:like><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first of our guest Repertoire Reports, submitted on behalf of the CBSO Youth Orchestra by their manager, Richard Bratby: Dear Ken, Hope you&#8217;re well!
