Dvorák: Overture “Carnival” in A major, op. 92
Tchaikovsky: Violin Concerto in D major, Op 35
Brahms: Symphony No 1 in C minor, Op 68

VENUE PROGRAMME NOTE:
Dvořák’s Carnival Overture is impetuous, fiery and high-spirited, Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto is intense in sound and highly virtuosic, and the evening ends hymnically, even triumphantly, with Brahms’ First Symphony. Optimal opportunities to shine for the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under its chief conductor Vasily Petrenko and for the soloist Julia Fischer.
