Viennese Masters

Wed 26 Mar 2008 2:15pm at Symphony Hall

For his second CBSO programme this season, Yannick Nézet-Séguin is
joined by the great Russian pianist whose performances of Tchaikovsky’s
Second Concerto created such an impression last season. Brahms’s great
D minor Concerto is a work on a similarly epic scale, and is famous for its
powerful exchanges between orchestra and soloist. In a similarly dramatic first half, Mozart’s best-known symphony is preceded by the Overture Beethoven wrote for Goethe’s play Egmont.

£29, £26, £22, £19.50, £16.50, £13, £9.50
