Hisaishi - Encounter for String Orchestra
Tchaikovsky - Violin Concerto
Beethoven - Symphony No.5
Join the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) for an epic orchestral afternoon at the Royal & Derngate with internationally acclaimed violinist Clara-Jumi Kang.
The first five bars of Beethoven’s iconic Fifth Symphony, possibly the most famous opening motif in classical music history, portend something mysterious and momentous. Filled with turmoil and beauty, this orchestral masterwork will leave you awestruck long after its triumphant finale.
But that’s not all: the evening opens with a delightful new miniature from the RPO’s Composer-in-Association Joe Hisaishi (Spirited Away), and Clara-Jumi Kang brings her world-class insight to Tchaikovsky’s ferocious Violin Concerto in D major. Bringing together folk and classical styles, this timeless piece gives both soloist and orchestra a chance to shine, from its expressive and passionate beginning through to its spirited, dance-like final movement.
‘A vibrantly intense performance… direct yet sensitive and her technique throughout was marvellously secure and commanding… The powerhouse articulation and accuracy in the finale was phenomenal.’ - Limelight on Clara-Jumi Kang playing Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, November 2024
Für Fans von: Klassisch.

However, The Royal Philharmonic has gained much of its main stream popularity with their wonderful arrangements of modern pop songs and compositions made famous on the West End stage. The respect they command in music circles is quite incredible, with many superstar musicians often seen working in their projects.
