Summary
Alpesh Chauhan leads the London Philharmonic Orchestra in Schumann’s Rhenish Symphony at Brighton Dome, featuring pianist Sophia Liu in Saint-Saëns’s Second Concerto and Mendelssohn’s Ruy Blas Overture.
Why it's fantastic
Schumann composed his third symphony to capture the rolling energy of the German countryside, making it a perfect match for the bright acoustics of the Dome. You might recognise the opening of the piano concerto, which starts with a moody solo before transforming into a playful, high-speed chase.
