The orchestra will begin their programme with Rimsky Korsakov's exotic Introduction & Three Miracles from Tsar Saltan. Nina Kotova, the leading Russian cellist, will then join the orchestra to perform Shostakovich's Cello Concerto, which has become one of the most popular works of the cello repertoire. The season will end with Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6, known as the Pathetique. Conducted only a week before the composer's mysterious death, the symphony's combination of dramatic climaxes, stirring marches and concluding slow movement make the piece one of Tchaikovsky's most profound compositions.
