Our Take

Ah, Lord Berners, the OG of avant-garde classical music. RTE Sinfonietta and BBCSSO grace us with their rendition of his masterpiece, "Le Carrosse Du Saint-Sacrementin."

From the moment the strings kick in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Berners takes you on a musical journey that's part whimsical, part absurd, and all-around captivating. The orchestration is lush, the melodies are playful, and the whole thing just oozes with creativity.

The track "Marche" is a highlight, with its jaunty rhythms and cheeky brass accents. It's like being transported to a quirky French carnival, complete with jugglers and acrobats. And don't even get me started on "Sarabande" - it's a slow burner that builds to a grand crescendo, leaving you breathless by the end.

But it's not all fun and games. Berners injects moments of melancholy into the mix, reminding us that even in the midst of chaos, there can be beauty. The final track, "Finale," is a bittersweet conclusion that lingers long after the music has faded.

Overall, RTE Sinfonietta and BBCSSO do justice to Berners' eccentric vision, bringing his music to life in all its quirky glory. "Le Carrosse Du Saint-Sacrementin" is a delightful romp that will leave you smiling and tapping your toes. Don't miss out on this musical rollercoaster - hop on board and enjoy the ride.
