Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony
past event
Description
Heartfelt and human
This symphony was a turning point for Tchaikovsky’s writing, combining Western musical styles with Russian fables and storytelling. This is the high point of Romanticism, with the breadth of human experience in glorious evidence. Conductor Pietari Inkinen draws out all the passion and colour of this immortal work.
For Prokofiev’s Sinfonia Concertante, the Sydney Symphony welcomes the return of soloist Alban Gerhardt. A superstar cellist at the peak of his powers, Gerhardt extracts every moment of expressive richness from this piece, revelling in its phenomenal range that moves from resonant bass notes to melodies that soar high above the orchestra. You’ll understand why he is regarded as one of the world’s musical greats.
