Work: Cello Concerto in E minor, Op.85

There is little doubt that the combination of Vasily Petrenko and the RPO is currently yielding magnificent results. Daniel Müller-Schott joined them for a performance of Elgar's Cello Concerto.

Thrills and disappointment in equal measure in mixed performances of two core repertory works under Mark Wigglesworth at the Lighthouse, Poole. 

Bruno Delepelaire plays unforgettable Elgar, while Han-Na Chang makes a terrific debut in the RSNO's final season concert of 2022.

Daniele Rustioni also conducts the Hallé in a gripping account of Sibelius'  atmospheric Lemminkäinen Suite.

Jaap van Zweden and the Hong Kong Phil excel in Shostakovich's Ninth Symphony and give an atmospheric reading of the Sea Interludes by Britten, but cellist Jan Vogler struggles to settle in Elgar’s Cello Concerto.
