NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra / Håkan Hardenberger / Jonathon Heyward
- Classical Music
Instead of Gustav Holst’s »Planets«, this concert will feature Sergei Rachmaninov’s Second Symphony. Subscribers and ticket purchasers will be informed of the change by email.
With the highly emotional Second Symphony, Rachmaninov finally overcame a creative crisis that had overtaken him after the premiere of his First Symphony, and with lasting success: to this day, the Second is Rachmaninov’s most popular symphony. Written shortly after the famous Second Piano Concerto, it shares its rapturous tone and gripping melody.
