London Philharmonic Orchestra

Edward Gardner conductor

Christian Tetzlaff violin

Beethoven Egmont Overture

Bartók Violin concerto No.2

Dvorˇák Symphony No.7

A programme full of the rhythms, dances and melodies of central and eastern Europe, and a visit from one of the world’s great violinists. Bartók’s flamboyant concerto is a love letter to his beloved Hungary before leaving his homeland forever, brought to life by the rich-toned and breathtakingly agile playing of Christian Tetzlaff. In Dvorák’s brooding, impassioned symphony the cross rhythms of Bohemia’s peasant dances are underpinned by a melancholy undertow. An appropriately stormy Beethoven overture sets the scene.
