Glasgow Royal Concert Hall

Date & Time
Sat, Mar 15, 2025, 19:30
Robin Ticciati presents Mahler’s blockbuster journey from darkness to light. A trumpet sounds a fanfare, the orchestra cries out, and Mahler’s Fifth Symphony judders into life. But a symphony, said Mahler, must be like the world; and 70 minutes later the whole orchestra is storming the heavens in triumph. It’s a blockbuster journey from darkness to light, told in funeral marches, Viennese waltzes and of course, music’s sweetest love-letter – the rapturous Adagietto. But Robert Schumann knew a thing or... Read full text

Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham

Tue, Jan 28, 2025, 19:00
Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham
Karina Canellakis (Conductor), Benjamin Grosvenor (Piano)
The London Philharmonic Orchestra perform at Nottingham's Royal Concert Hall.LPO Principal Guest Conductor, Karina Canellakis, begins her first visit to Nottingham in this role with Sibelius’s En Saga. Although he described it as the ‘expression of a state of mind’ rather than a mythical adventure, there’s no shortage of action in this powerful ‘psycho-drama’. There’s an altogether more serene mood in Mozart’s most popular Piano Concerto, particularly in the ethereal central movement which gained the nickname, the ‘dream andante.’ It’s performed here by the exceptional British pianist, Benjamin Grosvenor, a perfect match for Mozart’s light-touch lyricism.Bringing the concert to an emphatic close is Tchaikovsky’s fiery Fourth Symphony. Emerging from the wreckage of his short-lived marriage, it bares its soul in a maelstrom of emotions, opening up with an arresting fanfare signalling the malign forces of fate. But there’s also heartfelt poignancy and some delightfully deft play between the separate sections of the orchestra before it all ends exuberantly with a whirling folk dance finale.

Gemma New (Conductor), Christian Schmitt (Organ), Members of the Bamberg Symphony, Swantje Vesper (Concept), Swantje Vesper (Moderator)
The concert hall of Bamberg, situated on the picturesque banks of the river Regnitz, has been the centre of the region of Upper Franconia for events, trade fairs, congresses – and has been the home of the Bamberg Symphony for 30 years now. In the Joseph Keilberth Hall, with an audience of more than 1,400, the orchestra plays major symphonic concerts, but also chamber music, concerts for students, educational programmes and organ concerts are presented here. Furthermore, many award-winning CD recordings by the Bamberg Symphony have been made on this stage with its much-praised acoustics. On the occasion of its 30th anniversary, the concert hall opens its doors and offers a colourful and varied concert programme for all ages. On this day, the Bamberg Symphony will perform Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 under the baton of Gemma New in a very special concert in honour of »their own« home venue. The afternoon will already see a revisit to »Ruby Red« as well as the popular Seat Cushion Concerts for the little ones. Christian Schmitt will also be performing on the Jann-organ. More opportunities to discover the concert hall as well as various activities in the halls and foyers top off this special event. Come and celebrate with us!
