Sir Mark Elder conductor
Dame Imogen Cooper piano
Sibelius Scènes historiques, Suite No.2
Mozart Piano Concerto No.27
Dvořák Symphony No.5
Conductor Emeritus, Sir Mark Elder is joined by friend and collaborator Dame Imogen Cooper to perform Mozart’s final piano concerto. Full of richness and lyricism, it was written, in striking contrast to his other concertos, for a relatively small orchestra. Despite this, it is packed with the charm and beauty so characteristic of the composer’s other works. Dvořák composed his Fifth Symphony in only five weeks. It is quite a dramatic departure from the strident, Wagnerian sounding Fourth; it is lighter and largely pastoral in nature, heavily influenced by the Slavic folk songs and melodies of his native Bohemia. An often overlooked symphony in modern times, it is alive and bubbling with orchestral colour.
