One of the pivotal and bloodiest battles of 16th-century Europe, the four-month siege of
Malta by an Ottoman armada of some 200 ships, from which the local population led by the
Knights of Malta emerged victorious, was an extraordinary episode of heroism overcoming
overwhelming odds. Alexey Shor’s orchestral cycle Images from the Great Siege allows his
signature lyrical expressiveness free rein in a suite of romanticised impressions – from an
atmospheric Premonition of the Ottoman invasion, to the daring and climactic The Big Bluff
and final jubilant Victory Celebration. Verdiana is a virtuosic showpiece that celebrates and
transforms Verdi’s music into samba, bossa nova and tango styles.
