Alexander Shelley welcomes the young and vibrant Jayson Gillham to join him on the main stage for Chopin’s youthful Second Piano Concerto. This is sandwiched by two magical gems: Dukas’ symphonic poem The Sorcerer's Apprentice and Ravel’s iconic arrangement of Mussorgsky’s triumphant Pictures at an Exhibition, bringing the concert to a jaw-dropping close.
