Symphony No. 5 in E minor [50’]
Borodin’s magnificently vibrant distillation of themes from Prince Igor is the perfect curtain raiser for an evening of high drama and fevered romance from two emotionally uninhibited masterpieces. Sibelius’ Violin Concerto is full of rhapsodic yearning and charged by the most mysterious of melodies. Tchaikovsky’s tragedy-accented Fifth Symphony is an experience of overwhelming lyrical intensity.
