| Sheffield City Hall, Sheffield S1 2JA, United Kingdom Saturday 27-Mar-10 19:00 The Hallé From the richly Romantic world of 19th-century Russia comes Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony. This work of genius is dominated by ‘Fate', poignantly beautiful and vividly picturesque in its exciting, super-charged finale. The Hallé's principal oboist plays Mozart's delightful Oboe Concerto, an airy combination of exquisite tunes and the buoyant high spirits, reminiscent of Italian comic opera. Nikolaj Znaider, is widely known as one of the world's best violinists, but the young Dane's conducting career has really taken off. His Hallé conducting debut begins with two of Wagner's atmospheric and dramatic Preludes from Lohengrin. Pre-concert talk with Trisha Cooper - 6:15pm Hallé Nikolaj Znaider, Conductor Stephane Rancourt, Oboe | ||

| Royal Festival Hall, London, United Kingdom Sunday 27-Jun-10 19:30 Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Yuri Temirkanov - 2 Prokofiev's Second Violin Concerto is very different from the glittering, virtuosic First Concerto, with music in the first movement closely resembling his love theme from Romeo and Juliet, and the melody of the second movement singing out plaintively on the solo violin. The last movement is dominated by Spanish dance rhythms and explorations of the peasant fiddle associations of the violin. The finale of Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony makes use of folk associations too: it incorporates variations on a Russian folk song. The symphony as a whole is dominated by a motif which Tchaikovsky associated with 'fate', and was written during a period of severe depression for the composer.

| Royal Festival Hall, London, United Kingdom Thursday 11-Nov-10 19:30 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.

| Royal Festival Hall, London, United Kingdom Saturday 19-Mar-11 19:30 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.
