‘Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra’ - Britten | The Purcell School Celebrates Oliver Knussen
On Sunday 1st March, The Purcell School presented a whole day of stunning music-making in memory of Oliver Knussen, with four concerts given by over 100 outstanding Purcell students, staff, alumni and guests at the Southbank Centre.
Oliver was a Purcell student before he became the famous, beloved giant of the music world. These programmes honour his memory and all he did to promote music in the school, in the UK and throughout the world. Three daytime recitals took place in the Purcell Room followed by an orchestral concert in the QEH in the evening, showcasing music with links to Knussen, as well as Beethoven’s 250th anniversary plus Sonya Knussen, the composer’s daughter and a Purcell alumna, narrating Britten’s ‘Young Person’s Guide’.
