Ballet music by Russian compsores on tonight's Evening Concert: 1892's "Nutcracker" and the 1911 version of "Petrushka".
Two powerful works composed 130 years apart share tonight's Evening Concert.
Sinfonia celebrates Romanticism and Post-Romanticism with repertoire spanning more than 100 years and multiple continents with pianist, music director, and conductor Ian Hobson.
What sounds good to us as a concerto for these two instruments (violin and oboe), likely sounds as good as the concerto for its original instruments, two harpsichords. Hear the "Violin and Oboe" version tonight.
Russian fifth symphonies, that is.
