Production details

The concert opens with Ravel's Tombeau de Couperin, a 20th-century view on the French Baroque tradition. The piece was originally composed for solo piano and then beautifully orchestrated, showing the different colours of the Orchestra in a way only Ravel could.

This event takes place at the Guildhall
