Brahms: Academic Festival Overture
Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto no.2 in C minor (soloist: Alexandra Dariescu)
Bruch: Symphony no.3 in E major

We are delighted to welcome back Alexandra Dariescu to play the Rachmaninov concerto with
us. Whereas this is one of the most well-known of the composer’s works, the symphonic output of
Max Bruch has remained largely in the shadow of his violin and orchestra works. The 3rd Symphony is
a glorious love-letter in music to Bruch’s native Rhineland. The concert starts with Brahms’ highspirited
Academic Festival Overture written as a ‘thank-you’ to the University of Breslau for
bestowing an honorary degree upon him.

 

The orchestra reserves the right to change concert dates, venues, programmes or performers owing to unforeseen circumstances.
Suggestions for works to perform will be most welcome.
