When Benjamin Britten<\/strong><\/span> was asked to compose music for a film that would introduce the instruments of the orchestra to children, he composed music based on a work by Henry Purcell. It was music Purcell had written for a play entitled \u201cAbdelzer\u201d (written in 1676 by Aphra Behn). A Young Person\u2019s Guide to the Orchestra<\/em> shows the listeners the tone colours and capacities of the different sections of the orchestra.<\/p>\n

Animated version of the theme: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dcm-1UP5O2Y<\/a><\/p>\n

Shelley, Principal Associate Conductor of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, narrates and conducts a very special version of Benjamin Britten’s<\/strong><\/span> celebrated introduction to the orchestra. Featuring a brand-new narration and with the full Royal Philharmonic Orchestra coming together digitally from their own homes during the pandemic, they present a new take on this lively fugue and variations based on a memorable theme by Henry Purcell. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-hFFIrKZdSY<\/a><\/p>\n

The San Francisco Symphony kicks off its centennial season with conductor Michael Tilson Thomas leading the orchestra in Benjamin Britten’s<\/span> <\/strong>“The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.”   https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3xX6RtLDXiQ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
