Imagine...devastatingly beautiful melodies & breath-taking virtuosity that thrills you to the edge of your seat.
“Crystalline clarity”; “bravura power”; “so mighty as to sweep away any concerns” – critics can sometimes be lost for words when pianist Denis Kozhukhin performs with the ±«Óătv Scottish Symphony Orchestra, and there’s a good reason why he’s one of our favourite regular guests. Imagine all that artistry (and all that chemistry) in Rachmaninov’s sweeping Fourth Piano Concerto. That’s the centrepiece of a concert that opens with Matthias Pintscher conducting his own music, plus something new and powerful from his student Ricardo Ferro, before plunging into the deliriously Romantic world of Schoenberg’s PellĂ©as und MĂ©lisande. This lush orchestral saga of doomed love drove audiences wild in Mahler’s Vienna, and you’re about to hear why.
