Thomas Dausgaard conducts Brahms and Schubert

Both Brahms and Schubert combined the elegance of Classical music with the emotional power of the Romantic, making this programme a real treat for admirers of rich yet refined music. Under the baton of Thomas Dausgaard, the young dynamic pianist Natasha Paremski performs the dramatic Piano Concerto No.1 by Brahms, a work which encompasses music of brooding power and romantic tenderness. Schubert’s ‘Great’ C major Symphony reveals the composer at the peak of his powers, unfolding an array of wonderful melodies. ‘The Great’ distinguishes the work from Schubert’s earlier C major Symphony and reflects its majestic power.
