Celebrating the magic of renewal, with joyous melodies and powerful transformations.
Maxim Emelyanychev
Gustavo Díaz-Jerez piano
Rimsky-Korsakov Russian Easter Festival Overture (14’)
Gustavo Díaz-Jerez Tajogaite (Concerto for Piano and Orchestra) (UK premiere) (17’)
Stravinsky The Firebird Suite (1945 version) (30’)
Harmony with Nature isn’t always quiet. The music of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Orthodox Easter celebrates the rebirth of spring and light. The enchanted world of Stravinsky’s The Firebird lies trapped in a wintry darkness, until the magic of fire, love and dazzling music restores it to glowing, vibrant life. And with a piano concerto like no other, composer pianist Gustavo Díaz-Jerez takes us to the island of La Palma, where the volcano Tajogaite creates even while it destroys.
