“Come, accompany my sad song! / One sad song accompanying another! / Join your lament to mine! / How miserable our plight! / How horrible our Fate! / I suffer with you, my King! / Beat your breasts! / Beat your breasts and cry for my misfortune! / Oh, unbearable misfortune! / Join me in my lament! / Your misfortune, my King, is my misfortune! / Come, raise your voices with mine! /” Where did this quote come from and what is the connection with the concert programme? Unlike previous seasons, in their 2018/19 anniversary season the orchestra leave it up to the audience to work out how the concerts are linked.
