Season Opening | Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra

There’s no two ways about it: when Vasily Petrenko and the Orchestra play Tchaikovsky, something incredible happens. So when they perform his hugely popular, passionately romantic Fifth Symphony…well, let’s just say that we’re expecting some real fireworks in these opening concerts back in Liverpool Philharmonic Hall. First, though, we’ve another special occasion: the first performance anywhere in the world of a new Double Concerto, written for the brilliant brother-and-sister team of Mari and Håkon Samuelsen by James Horner. Yes – the James Horner, composer of the multi-million selling film-scores to Avatar and Titanic. Debussy’s Ibéria cracks open a bottle of musical Cava: join us to celebrate!
