Shakespeare in Music
Happy 450th birthday to Shakespeare.
Overview
The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra is marking Shakespeare 450th birthday (that is, not really marking his birthday but just 450 years since he was born) with a set of musical works inspired by the playwriting genius from Stratford-upon-Avon.
Musical works of the night are film composer Korngold's Much Ado About Nothing Suite, Mendelssohn's incidental music from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Walton's Henry V Suite and modernist R.Strauss' Macbeth.
