A popular favourite and a much less familiar work by Tchaikovsky. Barry Douglas is renowned for his performances of Russian music and has made a particular study of Russian culture in general. Tchaikovsky’s First Symphony is a fresh and charming work from early in his career. The concert begins with two orchestral pieces from Mussorgsky’s opera Khovanshchina - the atmospheric Prelude, depicting dawn over the Moskva River, and the exotic Persian Dance.
