Programme Note
Basingstoke Symphony Orchestra returns to The Anvil with a programme that features three of the greatest Romantic masterpieces ever written, with internationally renowned, award-winning pianist Yulia Chaplina, alongside conductor Stephen Scotchmer.
Opening the evening is Tchaikovsky’s emotionally-charged Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture, a beautiful musical depiction of the tragedy of the star-crossed lovers. Following this is Rachmaninov's ever-popular Piano Concerto No.2, with soloist Yulia Chaplina.
The concert concludes with Dvořák’s famous New World Symphony, featuring the beautiful cor anglais solo, which was made even more famous by its use in the Hovis bread advert.
Enjoy an excellent evening of romantic music at the Anvil this November!
