Rachmaninov’s Second Symphony
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The London Philharmonic Orchestra is joined in a sparkling Mozart concerto by pianist Paul Lewis, before reaching for the summit of Rachmaninov’s epic symphony.
Storm-swept vistas, glowing colours, and melodies that sing straight from the heart … if you had to imagine the perfect Romantic orchestral work, it’d probably sound very like Rachmaninov’s Second Symphony.
The LPO’s Principal Guest Conductor Karina Canellakis never stints on the emotion, and tonight she’s paired Rachmaninov’s evergreen symphony with a multi-sided portrait of Mozart at his darkest, his sunniest and his most gloriously dramatic.
And what better soloist, in the sparkling Piano Concerto No.25, than the orchestra’s great friend Paul Lewis – a pianist for whom Mozart’s music is always, he says, ‘alive with surprise’.
