Kogan will be joined on the platform by Chloe Hanslip, the highly talented young British violinist who will perform Philip Glass’ thrilling Violin Concerto. This work has become a great favourite amongst Classic FM audiences and anyone who does not know this concerto should certainly attend the performance, because it is a stunning piece that once heard you will want to hear again and again. The concert opens with Tchaikovsky’s dramatic Marche Slave and ends with Rimsky-Korsakov’s much-loved Scheherazade with its exotic and highly coloured evocation of the Tales of the Arabian Nights and its mesmerising picture of the hero Sinbad, a tempestuous storm at sea and the lovely figure of Scheherazade herself.Conductor Pavel Kogan.

T961708049 (06MAY10) Borodin's four Polovtsian Dances come from his opera Prince Igor. Captured by a rival chieftain, the prince is entertained in his camp by a succession of songs and dances, growing ever faster and more energetic. Philip Glass' Violin Concerto was first performed in 1987, and successfully marries the composer's typical repeated rhythms and arpeggios with longer, more lyrical lines. Its three movements follow the normal fast-slow-fast pattern, ending with a quiet coda which includes material from previous movements. The Tenth is perhaps Shostakovich's finest symphony - an epic journey, powerful and dramatic, yet with moments of touching simplicity. The first three movements, filled with a sense of struggle and dread, are balanced by a more optimistic finale completed after the death of Stalin.Performer Chloe Hanslip (violin). Conductor Pavel Kogan.
