Summary
Thomas Søndergård conducts the Royal Scottish National Orchestra at Dundee’s Caird Hall, featuring Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony and pianist Vadym Kholodenko in Szymanowski’s Symphonie concertante.
Why it's fantastic
You might recognize the recurring fate theme that haunts Tchaikovsky's symphony, eventually transforming from a somber funeral march into a triumphant finale. It is paired with a short, breezy opener by Lili Boulanger and Szymanowski’s unusual hybrid work which lets the piano soloist lead the orchestra from within.
