A combination of heroic bravura and Russian ‘big tunes’ have made Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto one of the most popular of them all.
Its intensity is felt from its famous opening flourish of grandiose piano chords.
Completing the programme is a performance of Brahms’ captivating symphonic swansong, a supreme distillation of a lifetime’s creative achievement.
