Bristol Symphony Orchestra and Music Director Robert Weaver present an evening of music inspired by the rich traditions of Central Europe.
Kodály’s exhilarating Dances of Galánta opens the concert with its vibrant Hungarian folk melodies and dazzling orchestral colours, before one of Britain’s most exciting young musicians takes the stage. Named a Classic FM Rising Star and the first violist ever to win the BBC Young Musician Strings Final, Jaren Ziegler has rapidly established himself as one of the outstanding talents of his generation. He performs Martinů’s deeply expressive Rhapsody-Concerto, a rare gem of the viola repertoire. The concert concludes with Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony, a work of sweeping drama, lyric beauty and emotional intensity, widely regarded as the composer’s greatest symphonic achievement.
