Gianandrea Noseda & Beatrice Rana
Beatrice Rana comes from a family of pianists. There were five grand pianos in her parents’ house in Copertino in southern Italy, so fortunately she never had to fight for a place at the piano when she wanted to practice. She preferred to play on her mother’s grand piano, which she broke at the age of 16… Rana is known and loved internationally as well as by the BRSO audiences for her electrifying playing, and she will have the opportunity to show off her magnificent skills in Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1. Equally celebrated is the Milanese conductor Gianandrea Noseda, especially for his Shostakovich recordings. Having been planned since the pandemic, one can look forward to the concert’s final work, Shostakovich’s Sixth Symphony: contemplative in the first movement, it becomes progressively manic during the course of the second and third movements.
