Prokofiev Suite,The Love for Three Oranges Dobrinka Tabakova Accordion Concerto (UK premiere) Co-commission with Stuttgarter Philharmoniker Rachmaninov Symphony No.3 Andris Poga - conductor Ksenija Sidorova - accordion Thought you knew the accordion? Well, in the hands of Ksenija Sidorova, it takes on magical properties. Her previous visits to Liverpool have been sensational, and now she returns with a brand-new, bespoke showcase by the spectacularly imaginative British-Bulgarian composer, Dobrinka Tabakova. Andris Poga’s welcome return begins with Prokofiev’s cheeky musical fairytale and ends with the bittersweet beauty of Rachmaninov’s Third Symphony – a song of exile by a master of melody. This will be a treat. Post-concert Question Time – starts 15 minutes after the concert ends (in the Music Room) with conductor Andris Poga and accordionist Ksenija Sidorova.
