Pictures At An Exhibition

Wed 25 Jun 2008 7:30pm at Symphony Hall

For our last ‘symphonic’ concert of the season we turn to Chinese conductor Xian Zhang, acclaimed internationally for her dynamic and spirited performances. Tonight she directs the CBSO in music from Ravel’s great ballet Daphnis and Chloé, and also in Ravel’s magnificent orchestral version of Mussorgsky’s piano portraits. She is joined by a Canadian rising star for Lalo’s best-known work, a colourful violin concerto based on Spanish dance tunes.
