Summary
Nodoka Okisawa conducts The Hallé at The Bridgewater Hall, featuring pianist Pavel Kolesnikov in Rachmaninov’s Third Concerto alongside Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 5.
Why it's fantastic
Pavel Kolesnikov takes on the Everest of piano concertos, a work famed for its torrential speed and taxing technical demands. It pairs perfectly with Prokofiev’s wartime symphony, which offers a powerful, cinematic surge of energy across eighty-five minutes of music. This is orchestral storytelling at its most muscular and direct.
