Featuring Benjamin Grosvenor (piano)

Kazuki Yamada (Conductor)

Programme Includes:

Fauré - Masques et Bergamasques, 14mins

Prokofiev - Piano Concerto No.3, 28mins

Berlioz - Symphonie fantastique, 55mins

An afternoon of gentle poems, wild dreams and even wilder piano playing.

Crazy in love: when Berlioz fell, he fell hard, pouring all his passions and fantasies into an epic, opium-fuelled orchestral showstopper. He didn’t call it “Symphonie Fantastique” for nothing! But that’s not the only good story we’ll be hearing today, as Kazuki Yamada evokes French poetry, and our good friend Benjamin Grosvenor takes the spotlight in Prokofiev’s firecracker of a Third Piano Concerto.
