Description
Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky and Rachmaninoff are three giants of Russian music, and this concert foregrounds all their exceptional talents.
Arensky uses one of Tchaikovsky’s Sixteen Children’s Songs to capture a range of moods and character, while Stravinsky’s Concerto for Violin is a feisty, joyful romp for the instrument, full of cheerful melody and musical wit. To close, a second visit to the no-holds-barred emotional world of Rachmaninoff’s symphonies (though you’ll have to wait until 2025/26 for Symphony No. 3!) and the achingly beautiful, flamboyantly majestic Second.
Arensky - Variations on a Theme by Tchaikovsky
Stravinsky - Concerto for Violin
Rachmaninoff - Symphony No.2
ANGUS WEBSTER - CONDUCTOR
ROSANNE PHILIPPENS - VIOLIN
- Admission £6 - £37
