Rachmaninov’s Symphony no. 1

“Vengeance is mine; I will repay!” And taking his cue from those thunderous words, the young Sergei Rachmaninov launched himself headlong into his volcanic First Symphony. Grand, dark, and blazing with unrequited passion, it’s a real gothic thriller. Beginning the concert, is the effortless grace (and oh-so-catchy tunes) of Suk’s Scherzo fantastique before Artist in Residence, Simone Lamsma, plays Sibelius’s haunting Violin Concerto. Fire… and ice.
