About this concert
Brahms - Variations on a Theme of Haydn
Shostakovich - Cello Concerto
Dvořák - Symphony No.8
Michael Petrov cello
Welcome to our opening concert of the season.
Brahms's influence on Dvořák is well documented. So tonight we will feature a classic work by both composers.
We open with Brahms's wonderful Variations on a Theme by Haydn. This work revels in the forms of the past and Brahms's passion for these structures. Composed in 1889 and premièred the following year,
Dvořák's Symphony No.8 has a lyrical and sprightly outlook that is full of vitality and inspiration drawn from his beloved Bohemian folk music.
We are extremely pleased to welcome Young Classical Artists Trust performer, Michael Petrov to perform Shostakovich's Cello Concerto No.1. Michael Petrov has been wowing audiences internationally with his meltingly warm, smooth tone and easy virtuosity. He has performed with many of the top classical orchestras to rave reviews. A rising star not to be missed.
