The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Cadogan Hall

The wind rises, and waves smash against the North Sea coast of England. The earth shakes, as the very ground beneath our feet threatens to give way. And, in 19th-century Russia, a chemist with a gift for music dreams of ancient times and exotic tribes and creates sheer sonic alchemy. Music can show us the world in magical new ways, and in this concert the LondonPhilharmonicOrchestra has chosen four pieces that stir the imagination even while they thrill the senses. BrittensFour Sea Interludes, BorodinsPolovtsian Dancesand Victoria Borisova-Ollas tribute to the imagination of Salman Rushdie,Open Ground,will make a vivid setting for the playfulness and wit of Prokofievs brilliantThird Piano Concerto played by young pianist Daniel Ciobanu for whom every performance is a new adventure.
This trip is for all year groups and is particularly recommended for Year 7 pupils, who can attend as part of their Cultural Enrichment Project.
