They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but music can paint a thousand pictures. A hut on hen’s legs, an angry gnome, and a ceremonial city bell: Pictures at an Exhibition is a musical kaleidoscope overflowing with fantastic colours. But that’s only the climax of this evening’s Russian adventure. First comes a sweeping single-movement Russian symphony from Rachmaninov’s contemporary, Nikolai Miaskovsky, and a chance to hear Benjamin Grosvenor in Rachmaninov’s most popular piano concerto.
