Rachmaninov Symphony No2
Britten Passacaglia from Peter Grines
Shostakovich Cello Comverto No1
Rachmaninov Symphony No2
Thomas Søndergård Conductor
Aleksei Kiseliov Cello
Royal Scottish National Orchestra
Is Rachmaninov’s Second the most romantic symphony ever written? With its vast, storm-swept vistas, endless melodies and rapturous love-song of a slow movement, it’s definitely a contender. Thomas Søndergård conducts it with unbridled emotion – the climax of a concert that begins with Shostakovich and Britten at their darkest. Britten’s windswept Passacaglia sets a powerful mood before the RSNO’s own Aleksei Kiseliov explores the tense, action-packed world of Shostakovich’s gripping First Cello Concerto.
