Philharmonia Orchestra

Carl Maria von Weber (1786–1826)

Ouverture dal Franco cacciatore (“Der Freischütz”)

Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943)

Concerto per pianoforte e orchestra n. 2 in do minore, op. 18

***

Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827)

Sinfonia n.3 in mi bemolle maggiore “Eroica”, op.55

Take two of the biggest hits of the classical repertoire: Rachmaninov's pompous and passionate second piano concerto and Beethoven's rugged Eroica symphony, full of explosively innovative musical features that bewildered its aristocratic audience when it was first performed in Napoleonic Vienna. Put them in the right order and serve with a vastly experienced group, the London-based Philharmonia Orchestra, along with two talented next-generation artists who have already made a name for themselves: Milanese conductor Daniele Rustioni, the 2022 Best Conductor of the Year, and Yulianna Avdeeva, a pianist with vast expressive ability. Then close your eyes and immerse yourself fully in an unmissable evening.
