“Chineke! is not only an exciting idea but a profoundly necessary one,” says Sir Simon Rattle in talking about Europe’s first orchestra to feature a majority of black and minority ethnic musicians. “It’s the kind of idea which will deepen and enrich classical music in the UK for generations. What a thrilling prospect!”
Chineke! here play Wynton Marsalis' A Fiddler’s Tale, a modern reinterpretation of Igor Stravinsky’s 1918 masterpiece, A Soldier's Story.
