Unchained emotion: the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra plays ¶Ù±¹´Çřá°ì'²õ most passionate symphony, and joins pianist Alexander Gadjiev in ¸é±ð²õ±è¾±²µ³ó¾±â€™s sumptuous, unfairly neglected Piano Concerto in a free concert at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Maida Vale Studios.

Inspiration has its own agenda, and for a railway enthusiast like Dvořák the sight of a train arriving at Prague’s main station was enough to suggest the melody that would grow into his Seventh Symphony. Some say it’s his greatest, and this stormy, impassioned masterpiece has been described as the sound of nation awakening to freedom, and as a deeply personal meditation on private tragedy. Either way, it’s gripping, and it’ll make a magnificent climax to this concert from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra.Ìý

ConductorÌýMartijn Dendievel is one of Europe’s fastest-rising podium stars and he’s joined by the award-winning pianist (and former ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ New Generation Artist) Alexander Gadjiev to uncover a true forgotten gem. Brilliant, poetic and wildly romantic, ¸é±ð²õ±è¾±²µ³ó¾±â€™s rarely-heard Piano Concerto has all the colour and melody you’d expect from the composer of The Pines of Rome. Your new favourite discovery? Don’t bet against it…
