Federico Colli takes on the fiendish Third Concerto. Sibelius鈥檚 haunting overture The Dryad gathers up moth-like fragments into a brief, halting dance. Soprano Lucy Hall and baritone Marcus Farnsworth join the orchestra in the spell-binding Andante pastorale of Nielsen鈥檚 鈥楽infonia espansiva鈥�. Despite its title, it鈥檚 not the longest of his symphonies, its expansiveness is rather an expression of exhilarating life-force, launched as it is with a volley of 26 鈥楢鈥檚, the key in which it eventually ends, rising into radiance.
NB There has been a change to the original billing for this concert. Federico Colli replaces Yevgeny Sudbin as pianist in Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 3
