Sergey Prokofjev: Symphony-Concerto in E minor Op. 125
Igor Stravinski: Firebird Ballet (Reduced concert version)

Sergei Prokofiev’s Sinfonia Concertante might feel like a tale from great Kievan Rus’ epic poem, Byliny. And like Ilya Muromets (the liberator of Kiev), our cello-hero, played by a rising cello star Jonathan Roozeman who is already establishing himself as a player of exceptional musical integrity, musically embarks on quests through mysterious lands and fights mythic creatures. What evening of folk tales would be complete without L’Oiseau de feu, by Igor Stravinsky, and not just the usual Suite but rather the complete ballet! Set in the magical garden of Kashchey the Deathless, the young Prince Ivan battles for the hand of a beautiful princess who is imprisoned there. With the help of the magical Firebird, Ivan is able to destroy Kashchey’s ‘horcrux’ and life is returned to the land. Not an evening to be missed!
(Eugene Tzigane)
