The young Music Director of English National Opera, Edward Gardner, gives the premieres of two British works: Stuart MacRae's nature-inspired Gaudete and Michael Berkeley's revisiting of his Slow Dawn, which he describes as depicting 'the gradual appearance of the sun (in the form of the tuba) as it climbs into the sky. Shafts of light and playful reflections accompany the increasing warmth of day.'

The sun theme first arises in Sibelius's evocative Night Ride and Sunrise, a typically brooding tone-poem. Elgar's affectionate sketches of his 'friends pictured within' have caught the imaginations of thousands over the past 100 years.
