Saint-Saens’ “Cello Concerto No.1” plus Russian ballet music on the “Evening Concert”
You'll hear "Romeo and Juliet" ballet music by Prokofiev, and "Scenes de ballet" by Stravinsky.
“Enigma” Variations and “Death & Transfiguration” on tonight’s “Evening Concert”
These two works both written within the last fifteen years of the 19th century could be seen as opposite to each other in 'sentiment': Elgar's musical portraits versus the pondering of one's life and passing.
