Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra: The Romance of Rachmaninov

Sunday, 27 February 2022, 2.30pm

Rossini Overture, Semiramide (11')
Dukas La Péri: Fanfare and poème dansé (19')
- INTERVAL - (20')
Rachmaninov Symphony No.2 (54')

Domingo Hindoyan conductor

Is Rachmaninov’s Second the most romantic symphony ever written? Let’s just say that it’s got to be a contender: a true Russian epic, swept by storms, glowing with emotion and bursting with the kind of melody that you never forget. Domingo Hindoyan conducts a real Liverpool favourite, first though, he sets the mood in sumptuous style. Rossini’s overture sparkles with Italian sunshine. And then Paul Dukas whirls us away to an imaginary Orient, for a tale of mystery, magic and (of course) love.
