Bardi Symphony Orchestra: Elgar Cello Concerto
Agata Zając conductor
Jonathan Aasgaard cello
Bardi Symphony Orchestra
BACEWICZ Overture
ELGAR Cello Concerto
SIBELIUS Symphony No. 5
The fast-paced Overture by Grażyna Bacewicz gives a rousing start to this concert before we enjoy one of the best-loved works in the history of classical music: Elgar's Cello Concerto. Performed by sublime cellist Jonathan Aasgaard, who will be recording the concerto with John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London shortly afterwards, this promises to be an outstanding performance.
The second half of this concert features Sibelius’s spectacular Fifth Symphony, a striking work inspired by swans flying over a lake that showcases the composer's unique mix of tradition and experimentation in his music.
Rising star Agata Zając will conduct this enjoyable concert of classics.
