The triumphant new partnership of Music Director Andris Nelsons and the Boston Symphony Orchestra thrills in two scintillating Russian masterpieces. Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky, taken from his complete score to Eisenstein’s famous film, comprises music that accompanied its iconic scenes, including the menacing chant of invading Teutonic Knights, the Russian people’s stirring exhortation to battle, a tender lament, and the colossal Battle on the Ice. Rachmaninoff’s Symphonic Dances is a spectacular orchestral showpiece that weaves threads of Russian Orthodox chant with the chilling Dies Irae, resulting in a blockbuster finale.
