Nome da turnê: Mahler x Korngold

A trumpet sounds an ominous fanfare, the orchestra cries out, and Mahler’s Fifth Symphony thunders into life. But that’s just the beginning – and, after all, this is Mahler! 68 minutes later, the whole orchestra is punching the sky in triumph. It’s an epic struggle from darkness to light, as powerful as any Hollywood blockbuster and every bit as colourful, filled with horn calls, dark visions and, of course, Romantic music’s most passionate love letter – the famous Adagietto that Mahler wrote for his young wife Alma.

It’s powerful stuff, so Vasily Petrenko has paired it with the rapturous Violin Concerto that Mahler’s protégé Erich Wolfgang Korngold dedicated to Alma when they were both exiled to California. Based on themes that Korngold had written for the silver screen, you can feel the poetry as well as the sunlight, and few living violinists play it with more panache than Ray Chen.

Formed in 1987 The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra it has become so what a national institution. It has managed to build a stellar reputation, not just here in the U.K but across the globe. To date they have manage to light up some of the biggest and most renown venues, with a wonderful array of music. I do believe there is a common misconception when people hear the word orchestra, with many assuming regimented classical music. However, The Royal Philharmonic has gained much of its main stream popularity with their wonderful arrangements of modern pop songs and compositions made famous on the West End stage. The respect they command in music circles is quite incredible, with many superstar musicians often seen working in their projects. They have had numerous collaborations over the years include one with legendary artists Andrea Bocelli, Lesley Garett, Sting and Stevie Wonder.
As a live act they also untouchable, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is the creme de la creme! Made up of array of gifted musicians with so many other thousands of young budding musicians honing their craft, in the hope that one day they maybe able to join one of the most coveted Orchestras of the modern day.
They have had many different tours such as ‘Mancini Rocks the Pops’, ‘Pop Go the Beatles’ and ‘Andrew Lloyd Webber Classics’ as well as many others. Theres is not doubt they have something for everyone!
