Repertoire
Performers
- Ryan Bancroft conductor
- Inon Barnatan piano
A composer’s mind is an exotic place at the best of times.
Still, nothing in music quite matches the fabulous, opium-fuelled phantasmagoria that is Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique. Born of unrequited love, and sweeping from pastoral love-scenes to the foot of the guillotine itself, it never fails to startle and amaze. Guest conductor Ryan Bancroft brings all his verve, and teams up with one of the piano’s great poets – Inon Barnatan – to find new depths in Tchaikovsky’s grandest and best-loved piano concerto. You’ve heard it before, but not like this.
