Alberto Ginastera took his inspiration from the skies, the soil and – above all – the soul of his native Argentina. His Variaciones concertantes captures that vast landscape, before cutting loose in fabulous, foot-stamping dance: sheer celebration, and a thrilling showcase for our Mexican guest conductor Carlos Miguel Prieto. And then RSNO favourite Boris Giltburg makes a very welcome return in Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto. It’s a dark, deeply personal masterpiece: perfect for a pianist who’s been described as ‘a true Romantic’.
