SUMMARY:London Philharmonic Orchestra: Swan Lake
DESCRIPTION:A handsome prince\, a wicked wizard and a swan princess: Swan Lake might be a ballet about black magic and doomed love\, but the real sorcery comes from Tchaikovsky’s ravishing score. That’s the climax of this concert – but make no mistake\, tonight there’s wonder from first note to last. Weber’s fairytale overture opens the portals of enchantment\, and the award-winning young American cellist Zlatomir Fung sprinkles his own brand of stardust on the delightful Rococo Variations. Tchaikovsky meets Mozart\, with a twinkle in his eye. \n  \nRepertoire \nWeber Overture\, Oberon (10’) \nTchaikovsky Variations on a Rococo Theme (18’) \nTchaikovsky Selections from Swan Lake (40’) \n  \nPerformers \nTianyi Lu conductor \nZlatomir Fung cello

SUMMARY:LPO: A Dark Century
DESCRIPTION:As part of the LPO’s exploration of memory\, Andrey Boreyko conducts three testaments from a dark century. \n  \nThree composers cry out in the void. Confronted by unimaginable horror\, Schoenberg rediscovered his Jewish roots\, and created a musical drama of savage\, defiant courage\, in tribute to the Holocaust victims. In Soviet Russia\, the authorities expected Shostakovich to write a propaganda symphony: but what they got was a searing denunciation of man’s inhumanity to man – more potent\, and more urgent than ever in 2024. As part of our exploration of memory\, Andrey Boreyko conducts three testaments from a dark century – with the incomparable Gidon Kremer as soloist in the Violin Concerto by Mieczysław Weinberg: composer\, survivor and Shostakovich’s most devoted friend. \n  \nFree pre-concert event: \nLPO 2024/25 Writer-in-Residence Jeremy Eichler gives a talk on this evening’s programme. 6.15–6.45pm in the Royal Festival Hall.

SUMMARY:LPO: Tchaikovsky’s Sixth with Karina Canellakis
DESCRIPTION:Karina Canellakis presents an emotion-packed programme with Tchaikovsky’s tragic final symphony. \nWaves crash\, tempests rise\, and emotions surge and roar so fiercely that the words to express them don’t exist. That’s where music comes in\, and when LPO Principal Guest Conductor Karina Canellakis is holding the baton\, there’ll be no holding back. Passion is the key tonight\, whether Kaija Saariaho’s opening Lumière et Pesanteur\, Beethoven’s darkest concerto (with the charismatic Ukrainian pianist Vadym Kholodenko at the keyboard) or Tchaikovsky’s tragic\, autobiographical final symphony. ‘Pathétique’ means ‘full of emotion’\, and if you’ve already experienced Canellakis’s special chemistry with the players of the LPO\, you’ll know how to bring the tissues. \nRepertoire \nSaariaho Lumière et Pesanteur (6’) \nBeethoven Piano Concerto No. 3 (34’) \nTchaikovsky Symphony No. 6 (Pathétique) (45’) \nPerformers \nKarina Canellakis conductor \nVadym Kholodenko piano

SUMMARY:LPO: Karina Canellakis conducts Schumann & Bruckner
DESCRIPTION:From forest shadows to sunlit peaks\, quiet melancholy to heaven-storming joy. Karina Canellakis presents a programme of passion and adventure. \nMists swirl\, the air shivers and a solitary horn sounds a call to adventure somewhere far away. There might be symphonies that open more beautifully than Bruckner’s Fourth\, but we can’t think of any! And that’s just the beginning of a musical journey that sweeps from forest shadows to sunlit peaks\, quiet melancholy to heaven-storming joy. In Bruckner’s 200th anniversary year\, the LPO’s inspirational Principal Guest Conductor Karina Canellakis makes it the climax of a deeply romantic programme that also stars cellist Truls Mørk in the tender\, passionate music of Robert Schumann – a composer with the soul of a poet.

SUMMARY:A Hero’s Life
DESCRIPTION:Sir Mark Elder presents a programme of storytelling starring Strauss’s stupendous Ein Heldenleben. \nWe’re all the heroes of our own lives. Strauss’s contemporaries couldn’t see the funny side of Ein Heldenleben (‘A Hero’s Life’): a riotously tuneful self-portrait of the artist as a superhero\, written for a colossal orchestra and featuring some of the most spectacular sounds ever imagined. The great Sir Mark Elder brings all his matchless flair for musical storytelling to a concert that opens in the shimmering wonderland of Ravel’s fairytale ballet and stars Canadian virtuoso James Ehnes in the underrated sequel to Bruch’s ever-popular First Violin Concerto. It’s rarely heard – and it’s a delight.

SUMMARY:LPO: Patricia Kopatchinskaja plays Shostakovich
DESCRIPTION:Repertoire \nBritten – Sinfonia da Requiem (21’) \nShostakovich – Violin Concerto No. 1 (36’) \nSibelius – Symphony No. 5 (31’) \nPerformers \nEdward Gardner – conductor \nPatricia Kopatchinskaja – violin \n  \nBig music demands big personalities\, and they don’t come much bigger than violinist and all-round phenomenon Patricia Kopatchinskaja. \nSibelius sees a flight of swans on a summer evening and hears a melody that could have been wrought from the elements. Britten opens the emotional floodgates and creates one of 20th-century music’s mightiest outpourings of grief. And Shostakovich whispers secrets in the shadows in a concerto that refuses to be silent. It’s all about memory and all about truth. Big music demands big personalities\, and they don’t come much bigger than violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja: virtuoso\, storyteller and all-round phenomenon. With Edward Gardner conducting\, she’ll drive straight to the heart of this powerful programme.
