Summary
Ariane Matiakh conducts the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in a programme of Debussy, Elgar and Brahms, featuring cellist Zlatomir Fung as soloist at Northampton’s Royal & Derngate.
Why it's fantastic
Elgar wrote this haunting concerto in the aftermath of the First World War, capturing a sense of melancholy that has defined English music ever since. Pairing those soulful cello melodies with a sprawling symphony by Brahms makes this a perfect evening for anyone who enjoys rich, deep orchestral storytelling.
