Rachmaninov: Symphony No. 3 in A minor

Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra
Vladimir Jurowski (conductor)
Rachmaninov鈥檚 150th-anniversary celebrations continue with the composer鈥檚 final symphony, a work tinged with yearning. 鈥極nly one place is closed to me,鈥� Rachmaninov wrote after his exile in the USA, 鈥榓nd that is my own country, Russia.鈥� Following in the virtuoso tradition of Rachmaninov is Thomas Ad猫s鈥檚 Piano Concerto, performed here by Kirill Gerstein, who gave the 2019 premiere. The work鈥檚 sardonic brilliance finds an echo in the suite from Kurt Weill鈥檚 Die Dreigroschenoper (鈥楾he Threepenny Opera鈥�), with its famous 鈥楤allad of Mack the Knife鈥�. Coming after last week鈥檚 visitors from Boston (where Ad猫s鈥檚 concerto was premiered), tonight we welcome the esteemed Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra 鈥� 100 this year 鈥� making its Proms debut under Chief Conductor Vladimir Jurowski.
