Wagner’s majestic Die Meistersinger raises the curtain on a whole world of sunshine, melody and romance – so it’s a fitting opener for Bruch’s perennially-popular First Violin Concerto. From its twilight opening to the gypsy passion of the exuberant finale, Bruch could have written it for the gleaming sound and effortless charm of Tasmin Little – a national treasure who’s conquered the world.
Conductor Christoph Koenig will then sweep audiences off to the endless Russian landscape of Rachmaninov’s mighty Second Symphony. Opulent, impassioned, swept by thunderous winter storms and filled to bursting with the kind of long, blissful tunes that only Rachmaninov could write.
