Pictures At An Exhibition
For our last 'symphonic' concert of the season we turn to Chinese conductor Xian Zhang, acclaimed internationally for her dynamic and spirited performances. Tonight she directs the CBSO in music from Ravel's great ballet Daphnis and Chlo?©, and also in Ravel's magnificent orchestral version of Mussorgsky's piano portraits. She is joined by a Canadian rising star for Lalo's best-known work, a colourful violin concerto based on Spanish dance tunes.
