The Performance

Travel with the HPO and guest conductor Nil Vendetti to picturesque destinations and worlds of deep emotion. After Verdi’s tumultuous overture to his opera about tragic destiny, the HPO’s own Principal Cello Leana Rutt takes the spotlight in Elgar’s passionately brooding Cello Concerto, a lament for a lost world. Kilar’s Orawa then brings you to an exuberant highlanders’ dance in the Tatras mountains, while Mendelssohn’s jubilant Fourth Symphony captures his vibrant impressions of Italy.
