Come and join us for an evening of romantic classics.
The concert starts with Weber’s Oberon Overture which takes us to a realm of knights and forest spirits from the very first notes played by the solo horn – the magical instrument of the Elf King. Katya Grabova then joins the orchestra for one of the most loved works in the repertoire: Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, famed for its soaring melodies, intense passion, and lush orchestration. The evening concludes with Dvorak’s Symphony No. 5. Often called his "Pastoral" symphony, it is one of his sunniest pieces, capturing the rustic charm and folk-inspired rhythms of the Bohemian countryside and filled with glorious melodies.
Our soloist: Katya Grabova
Currently studying for a masters at the Royal Academy of Music, Katya is establishing herself as one of the most compelling young pianists of her generation. She has performed at major music festivals including Rheingau Musik Festival and Leeds International Concert Season. She made her solo recital debut at Wigmore Hall last November, supported by Royal Academy of Music. https://www.katyagrabova.com/
