Nielsen Pan and Syrinx
Dvořák Violin Concerto
Rachmaninoff Symphony No. 3

Osmo Vänskä conductor
Christian Tetzlaff violin

One night in 2007, conductor Osmo Vänskä took the London Philharmonic Orchestra through the thrilling orchestral showpiece that is Rachmaninoff’s Third Symphony. The performance – of rare involvement, energy and beauty – became a critically acclaimed recording. Now Vänskä, whose concerts with the Orchestra invariably combine sparks of energy with startling levels of finesse, returns for a second look at this most irrepressible symphony of yearning and longing, with Dvořák’s treacle-toned Violin Concerto and music of plaintive rhapsody from Carl Nielsen to begin.
