About This Event

鈥淰engeance is mine; I will repay, sayeth the Lord鈥. And taking his cue from those thunderous words, the young Rachmaninov hurled himself into a First Symphony on a formidable scale. Dark, turbulent and burning with unrequited passion, this is music as gothic melodrama 鈥 lost (but later recovered) when its composer fled the Russian Revolution for a life of exile.

It鈥檚 a gripping climax to this concert from guest conductor Chlo茅 Van Soeterst猫de: an afternoon that begins in the dream-world of Debussy鈥檚 mythical Faun, and ends at the gates of the inferno. But there鈥檚 time to sing, and to dance too - and when you hear 成人快手 Radio 3鈥檚 New Generation Artist Hana Chang play Prokofiev鈥檚 zingy Second Violin Concerto, you鈥檒l believe that a violin can do both.
