Summary
Bertie Baigent conducts the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra at Symphony Hall, where pianist Tomos Boyles joins for Prokofiev’s Third Concerto alongside works by Stravinsky and Rachmaninoff.
Why it's fantastic
This evening transitions from Stravinsky’s witty elephant dance to the sheer energy of Prokofiev’s third piano concerto. You will finish with Rachmaninoff’s final symphony, a work that finds the composer looking back at his Russian roots through a lens of lush, cinematic nostalgia.
