Programme

Concert information

Elgar wouldn鈥檛 say if his First Symphony told a story 鈥 merely that 鈥渋t expressed a wide experience of human life with a great charity (love) and a massive hope in the future鈥. But the British public knew a masterpiece when they heard one, and when it was premiered in 1908, the audience leapt to its feet and cheered. Thomas Dausgaard brings a uniquely fresh approach to a late-Romantic epic like no other, paired here today with Bart贸k鈥檚 vivid musical postcards from Transylvania, and the poetry, tenderness and heart-on-sleeve romance of the Piano Concerto by Robert Schumann. There鈥檚 a good reason why pianist Elisabeth Leonskaja is revered by her fellow musicians: and you鈥檙e about to hear it.

The concert will be recorded for future broadcast on 麻豆约拍 Radio 3.
