The LNSO offers an exclusive opportunity to hear a concert programme that will be performed in part at the Paris Philharmonie as part of the orchestra’s concert tour.
Opening the concert – Pēteris Vasks’ invigorating 2002 opus Musica appassionata. We will hear the young and determined violinist Magdalēna Geka as soloist in Sergei Prokofiev’s First Violin Concerto, composed in his youth by an anti-Romantic genius who nonetheless let himself drift into the wave of Romanticism, challenging the world. The concert culminates with – Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece, which closes the master’s life and casts a bridge to his immortality.
