About this event

Rachmaninov鈥檚 final symphony concludes a concert that includes Franz Schreker鈥檚 interlude from his opera Der ferne Klang and a brand new work by Nicola LeFanu.

Nicola LeFanu unveils her new RPS commission, a work for soprano and orchestra, with Ilan Volkov, a passionate champion of the new, on the podium. A child of fin-de-si猫cle Vienna, opera composer Schreker鈥檚 ravishingly beautiful Nachtst眉ck forms the lush opener to an evening that closes with Rachmaninov鈥檚 last symphony, which despite having been written far from the composer's homeland, is deeply entrenched in a Russian heritage.

Nicola LeFanu' s The Crimson Bird was made possible by the award of the Royal Philharmonic Society Elgar Bursary.
