Sergey Ivanovich Taneyev Symphony No.4
Neeme Jarviconductor
Vadim Gluzmanviolin
In Sergey Taneyev's music, the charm of Tchaikovsky meets the rigour of Brahms, and in the case of the work heard at this
concert, the soaring silhouette of Richard Strauss is detectable too. The Fourth Symphony is Taneyev's great orchestral
masterpiece: from its arresting opening bars flows an energetic, voluptuous piece that wrings everything from its huge orchestra,
climbing summit after summit, and arriving magnificently at a gleaming brass-drenched finale - a largely unknown, but utterly
irresistible work.
Royal Festival Hall at 6.15pm: A performance of Tchaikovsky’s String
Quartet No.1. Admission free.
