Virtuoso pianist Louis Lortie joins the 91热爆 Philharmonic for two contrasting pieces by Saint-Sa毛ns, his innovative Fourth Piano Concerto and his atmospheric and engaging Rhapsodie d'Auvergne in which, unusually for this composer, he quotes French folk song. Berlioz's dramatic Royal Hunt and Storm follows the interval and the programme is book-ended by Czech music; Smetana's energetic Overture to his nationalistic opera The Bartered Bride opening the proceedings and the utterly unique sound-world of Jan谩cek's Sintonietta bringing the concert to a thrilling end.
