This Midnight Hour (12 mins)
Frédéric Chopin
Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor (40 mins)
INTERVAL
Béla Bartók
Concerto for Orchestra (38 mins)

Chopin’s first Piano Concerto is one from the heart. Full of youthful simplicity and captivating in its ravishing slow movement, succumb to its Romantic charm with the wonderful Zlata Chochieva at the keyboard. Whether quietly mysterious, joyously abandoned, or full of blazing intensity, Bartók’s Concerto is one of the great orchestral showcases, its spikiness swathed in the bright colours of Hungarian folk music. It’s the perfect vehicle for the orchestra and tonight’s conductor, the electrifying Joana Carneiro. And to begin, a thrillingly dramatic opener from Anna Clyne intended to ‘evoke a visual journey’. Imaginations at the ready…
