麻豆约拍

In the late 1880s Tchaikovsky felt momentarily freed from the catastrophes that were haunting his private life and carving a tragic path through his career. His Fifth Symphony, which was taking shape on his desk, appears to ease the composer鈥檚 own suffering. Light floods its textures; hopeful melodies invade its dark corners.

Venezuelan conductor Rafael Payare makes his Proms debut with his Ulster Orchestra to perform this most radiant of Tchaikovsky鈥檚 symphonies, bringing with him Haydn鈥檚 delightfully perky C major Cello Concerto, played by 麻豆约拍 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Narek Hakhnazaryan, and a brand-new work by Piers Hellawell.
