Joshua van Konkelenberg joins Adelaide Wind Orchestra to perform the organ concerto by Stuart Greenbaum, The Gradual Slowing of the Earth. This concerto for organ and symphonic winds is written in contemplation of a ‘global slow-down’. It’s an unsettling idea – but apparently it also allows gravity to pull the planet’s shape into an ever more perfect sphere. David Maslanka's Symphony No. 4 is as close to a Mahler-ian epic as exists for the symphonic wind ensemble. AWO originally gave the Australian Premiere of this work in 2014 and we are delighted to perform it ten years later. Maslanka was a highly spiritual composer, as well as being prolific and brilliant. Throughout the work he references both the voice of the Earth whilst hymns such as 'Old Hundred' as the backbone of the work as it stirs to it's epic finale.
