| Royal Festival Hall, London, United Kingdom Wednesday 17-Mar-10 19:30 London Philharmonic Orchestra with Ludovic Morlot What is life without the warmth and inspiration of human affection? When virtuoso violinist Joseph Joachim bounded into Brahms’s life like an energetic puppy, he utterly overwhelmed the composer, drawing from him a violin concerto that’s at once poised and playful. Béla Bartók – alone, exiled, ill and poor – might well have thought his compositional life over in 1943. His friend the conductor Serge Koussevitsky thought otherwise. He re-energised Bartók with encouragement and a major commission. Eight weeks later Bartók delivered his Concerto for Orchestra – a percussive, irrepressible and playful firecracker of a piece. Tickets £9 - £38. London Philharmonic Orchestra Ludovic Morlot, Conductor Anne-Sophie Mutter, Violin | ||

| Concertgebouw, Large Hall, Amsterdam, Netherlands Wednesday 17-Mar-10 20:15 Bernard Haitink conducts Shostakovich 15 The orchestra has a good relationship with Shostakovich’s last symphony. Kirill Kondrashin conducted the Dutch premiere in 1972, less than a year after it was premiered in Moscow. Although Shostakovich was still viewed with suspicion in the Netherlands, the Concertgebouw’s chief conductor at the time Bernard Haitink conducted the work in 1976. It continues to be a matter of conjecture whether the many quotations in Shostakovich’s music are meant to convey a critical view of Soviet culture or a description of the composer’s own place in music history. Listeners might also wonder if they’re actually hearing the final seconds of his life ticking away at the end of the work.

| Lakeside Arts Centre, Nottingham University, Djanogly Recital Hall, Nottingham NG7 2RD, United Kingdom Thursday 18-Mar-10 19:30 Eggner Trio On their first visit to Lakeside the Eggner brothers captivated the audience with their musical energy and artistry. This concert programme further explores a wide emotional range. Beethoven’s Piano Trio Op.70 No.1 earned its nickname from the eerie second movement. Shostakovich’s first piano trio written at the age of 17 was dedicated to Tanya Glivenko with whom Shostakovich was in love. There is a romantic intensity to the work but it nonetheless introduces elements of the grotesque which were to become more prominent in his compositional maturity. Ravel’s Piano Trio was completed just as war broke out in 1914. The colouristic work draws inspiration from Malay verse forms and Basque folk music written within a highly complex musical structure. The concert finishes at approximately 9.05pm Christoph Eggner, Piano Georg Eggner, Violin Florian Eggner, Cello | ||

| Queen Elizabeth Hall, London, United Kingdom Thursday 18-Mar-10 19:30 Corinthian Chamber Orchestra The Corinthian Chamber Orchestra performs the core of Bernstein’s last concert, given at Tanglewood with the Boston Symphony on August 19, 1990 - Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony and Britten’s Four Sea Interludes. This was not planned as Bernstein’s final concert, but by that point he must have known that it would be - he died two months later of advanced lung disease. Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony also has particular significance for the CCO, having recorded it with their late Musical Director, Alan Hazeldine, who at the time was fighting a losing battle with lung cancer. Bernstein generously championed many composers, including Samuel Barber. He didn’t premiere the Violin Concerto, but famously recorded it in 1965 with Isaac Stern and the New York Philharmonic. The CCO are joined by Laura Samuel of the celebrated Belcea Quartet to perform this melodious concerto. Corinthian Chamber Orchestra Peter Stark, Conductor Laura Samuel, Violin | ||
