Monday 19 September 2022

Not one, not two, but three concertante works fill this celebration of virtuosity at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London. Maxim Vengerov, Marios Papadopoulos and the orchestra are joined by Simon Trpčeski and Mischa Maisky  for this concert pivoting on Beethoven’s Triple Concerto, a score of Apollonian balance and beauty that still makes room for joie de vivre. Either side of it we hear Pablo de Sarasate’s firecracker for two violins where we are joined by the stars of tomorrow and the violin concerto by Shostakovich that combines bravura, brilliance, meditation and melodiousness.
