Check! A soul overflowing with wonderful melodies? Check! A household name? Well… Over seventy years after his death, Szymanowski is still something of a well-kept secret. With Chief Conductor Jaap van Zweden as his sparring partner, the star violinist Leonidas Kavakos will show you what you have been missing. Their performance of Szymanowski's magisterial Second Violin Concerto should be one of the highlights of the concert season. | ||

| Royal Festival Hall, London, London, United Kingdom Thursday 11-Nov-10 07:30pm Philharmonia Orchestra Dedicated to Tchaikovsky’s friend and close confidant Madame von Meck, the composer wrote in a letter to her that she would find in the Fourth Symphony “an echo of your most intimate thoughts and emotions”. The opening fanfare motif represented to Tchaikovsky ‘Fate’ preventing him from attaining happiness: a comment made all the more poignant when we realise he composed the work in the aftermath of his catastrophic marriage. Yet the finale is an exciting charge towards the finish line, its enthusiasm and boundless energy outweighing the work’s earlier bleakness. | ||

Martucci shares this end-of-thecentury atmosphere with Tchaikovsky, which shows through in this programme. The central theme of the seven songs of La Canzone dei ricordi is the memory of hopelessly lost happiness, whereas the dominant theme of Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4 is destiny: the impossibility of absolute happiness, ‘hanging above our heads like the sword of Damocles, poisoning our souls perpetually...’ / Production La Monnaie Martucci, Giuseppe (1856-1909), La Canzone dei Ricordi (Belgian première) | ||

| Royal Festival Hall, London, London, United Kingdom Saturday 19-Mar-11 07:30pm Anderson, Beethoven and Tchaikovsky Fate. It has hung dagger-like over the art of music since Beethoven seized it by the throat. In 1877, Tchaikovsky felt its weighty hand on his shoulder. His artistic response was a symphony completely unlike anything he had created before: ‘This is fate’, he confided to his friend Nadezhda von Meck, explaining the opening notes of his heart-on-sleeve Fourth Symphony. But by the Symphony’s final chapter, Tchaikovsky’s darkness had turned to light. ‘Rejoice in other’s rejoicing’, he urged Nadezhda, and the Symphony veered towards the sort of unstoppable, ebullient joy that Beethoven had sought refuge in with his radiantly smiling Violin Concerto. | ||
