About the event
FULL PROGRAMME
- Fauré, Masques et Bergamasques (14mins)
- Prokofiev, Piano Concerto No.3 (28mins)
- Berlioz, Symphonie fantastique (55mins)
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.
