Malta Philharmonic Orchestra
This event is in the past
On their first visit to Norwich, the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra will perform a programme of classical favourites.
The exceptionally talented Freddy Kempf joins the orchestra to perform Rachmaninov’s much-loved second piano concerto. One of the most popular piano concerti in the entire repertoire, it is also arguably Rachmaninov’s best-known work, made famous by its romantic theme featured in the film ‘Brief Encounter’. The work’s popularity was cemented more recently when it took the Number 1 spot in Classic FM’s Hall of Fame in 2024.
In the second half, the Theatre Royal audience will be treated to a masterful performance of Tchaikovsky’s triumphant Fifth Symphony; with the magnificent horn solo opening the second movement and “untamed fury” of the fourth movement, this is a concert not to be missed.
