Narek Hakhnazaryan, cello
Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
Ben Gernon, conductor
Young Armenian cellist Narek Hakhnazaryan caused quite a stir at the 2016 Proms. Tonight, he plays Elgar's Cello Concerto, with its blend of poetry, passion and very English nostalgia. Shropshire-born Ben Gernon is another fast-rising talent, and he brings Wagner's barnstorming Rienzi overture, and Schumann's Second Symphony, basically a coded love-letter to the composer's wife, to complete the programme.
