RLPO Note
Welcome back! Let’s open Liverpool Philharmonic Hall doors again with evocations of the British countryside as imagined by Frederick Delius. Then Liverpool’s own Paul Lewis conjures up the beauty and freshness of Beethoven’s first piano concerto. And of course Vasily wants to welcome us back with music of his homeland with Prokofiev’s youthful Sinfonietta. Music to lift the spirits!
