Passions flare and fates collide in this concert of palpable emotion, with Brahms’ fiery Piano Concerto No.1, performed by Sir Stephen Hough and the Sydney Symphony, paired with Prokofiev's intoxicating Romeo and Juliet and the world premiere of LiFT by Australian composer Iain Grandage.
In the hands of Sir Stephen Hough, ‘Brahms’ concertos have rarely sounded more brilliant, energetic and innovative’ (The Sunday Times).
Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet vividly realises the humour, tenderness and, of course, tragedy of this classic tale. Montagues and Capulets is iconic, and a great gateway into Prokofiev's best-loved piece.
