The Firebird
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The London Philharmonic Orchestra captures nature at its most dazzling and dramatic in an evening that leads us to the enchanted realm of Stravinsky’s ballet.
The music of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Orthodox Easter celebrates the rebirth of spring and light.
The enchanted world of Stravinsky’s The Firebird lies trapped in a wintry darkness, until the magic of fire, love and Stravinsky’s dazzling music restores it to glowing, vibrant life.
And on the island of La Palma, the volcano Tajogaite (cracked mountain) creates even while it destroys.
Composer-pianist Gustavo Díaz-Jerez incorporates actual recordings of its 2021 eruption into a new piano concerto like no other, and joins conductor Maxim Emelyanychev to dance with fire tonight.
Harmony with Nature isn’t always quiet.
