About This Event

Revolutions aren’t always noisy – and as the world around them broke up in war and turmoil, Dora Pejačević and Karol Szymanowski let their imaginations soar, creating beauty that still thrills and ravishes today. The young Strauss pictures eternity, and Richard Wagner writes a wordless poem to the love of his life: music so intimate that it almost feels as if we shouldn’t be listening.

We’re also thrilled to welcome back the virtuoso violinist (and former ±«Óătv New Generation Artist) Ilya Gringolts. His playing has been described as “luminous”: it should be perfect for Szymanowski’s sensuous, shimmering Concerto.

Tickets on general sale from 19 April.
