Summary
Nicholas Collon leads the Hallé at The Bridgewater Hall in Szymanowski’s Second Violin Concerto with Emily Davis, alongside a Ravel premiere and Rachmaninov’s Third Symphony.
Why it's fantastic
Rachmaninov composed this symphony during his exile in Switzerland, weaving together deep nostalgia for his homeland with a modern, energetic pulse. The evening begins with a world premiere of reimagined Ravel songs and Szymanowski’s lyrical concerto, offering a vivid range of orchestral colours in a concert lasting just over an hour.
