Errollyn Wallen’s Mighty River is dedicated to her great-great-great-great-great-great-grandmother, a slave. ‘It is an innate human instinct to be free,’ she says, ‘just as it is a law of nature that the river should rush headlong to the sea.’ This gripping orchestral work from one of Britain’s most original living composers makes an unforgettable impact. What better piece to accompany it than a stunning new violin concerto inspired by the tragic love-story of Ludwig van Beethoven – music’s great champion of freedom – and performed by acclaimed violinist Midori.
