Dvorák’s Seventh is big, dark and handsome – a gloriously tuneful portrait of a great nation awakening to life. Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto, on the other hand, is a powerful Soviet thriller; a gripping showcase for the sensational Sol Gabetta. And Peter Oundjian lets the whole RSNO show its mettle in Benjamin Britten’s wonderfully entertaining guide to the orchestra – perfect for young people of any age!

The RSNO play Britten, Shostakovich and Dvořák with Oundjian

Alan Coady, 11th October

There can be few openings which get as briskly down to business as Britten’s 1946 The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra. Peter Oundjian and the RSNO exploded into the minor-key Rondeau, which Britten had borrowed from Purcell’s 1695 Abdelazer Z. 750.
