Â鶹Éç National Orchestra of Wales - Smetana, Dvorak and Beethoven
Jiri Rozen conducts the Â鶹Éç National Orchestra of Wales in Smetana's Triumphal Symphony and Dvorak's Serenade for Strings. Aleksey Semenenko joins for Beethoven's Violin Concerto
This Â鶹Éç National Orchestra of Wales concert from St. Georges in Bristol begins with two works of Bohemian origin, the scherzo from Smetana's Triumphal Symphony and Dvořák's Serenade for Strings, a work which the composer reportedly completed in just 12 days. The concert concludes with Beethoven's majestic Violin Concerto, featuring the New Generation Artist Aleksey Semenenko as soloist. Also music from Martinů and, this week's featured work in the Our Classical Century focus, Sibelius' tone poem Tapiola.
Presented by Tom McKinney.
