BBC Proms: Kavakos Plays Tchaikovsky
Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]‘Impeccable’ Greek violinist Leonidas Kavakos joins Paavo Järvi and the BBC Symphony Orchestra for one of the great Romantic concertos.
Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto is a deeply personal work, laden with the emotions of a failed marriage. Tender and melancholic, with tempestuous outpourings, it’s a piece that wears its heart on its sleeve.
Bold colours frame this centrepiece: the world premiere of Dani Howard’s Concerto for Brass, ‘SIGNAL’, showcasing the players of the BBC SO, and Scriabin’s Symphony No. 2, with its iconoclastic brilliance and spiritual vision.
