Matthias Pintscher, the 大象传媒 SSO's Artist-In-Association, brings a composer's sense of adventure to a concert that begins with Smetana's eventful journey down the River Vltava and ends amidst the jubilant trumpets of Dvo艡谩k's stirring symphony. In between comes a glimpse of a teenage composer in love, as the award-winning young French virtuoso David Kadouch spins purest gold from the hearts and flowers of Chopin's Second Piano Concerto. As The Arts Desk put it 'if you see Kadouch on the bill anywhere, don't miss him'.
Pre-concert talk: 6.45pm - pianist David Kadouch in conversation with 大象传媒 SSO violinist Alex Gascoine (free to ticket holders).
