English Symphony Orchestra: Sibelius & Rachmaninoff

Sibelius Symphony No.4 in A minor, Op.64
Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No.2 in C minor, Op.18
Conductor: Kenneth Woods
Piano: Freddy Kempf
These two iconic masterpieces were both written in response to moments of intense personal adversity. The Fourth Symphony reflects Sibelius’s ultimately successful battle against cancer, while the Second Piano Concerto see’s Rachmaninoff regaining his confidence and inspiration following
a period of profound creative crisis, resulting in what is quite possibly the most popular piece in the entire classical repertoire and a constant, beloved audience favourite. Don’t miss this chance to hear
it live as it kicks off our season in style!
