Sixteen Swans

Strauss Don Juan (18')
Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No.1 (33')
- INTERVAL - (20')
Sibelius Symphony No.5 (31')

Roderick Cox conductor
Inon Barnatan piano

One quiet evening, Sibelius saw a flight of 16 swans. “God, what beauty!” he exclaimed, and he transformed that natural wonder into the melody that concludes his Fifth Symphony – a tune so good that you feel like you’ve known it forever. Tonight, it’s the crowning glory of a concert that unites Strauss at his most swashbuckling and Tchaikovsky at his most romantic – with the superb Inon Barnatan returning as soloist in one of the world’s favourite piano concertos. The German-based American conductor, Roderick Cox, winner of the 2018 Georg Solti competition, makes his Liverpool debut.

Post-concert Question Time - starts 15 minutes after the concert ends (in the Music Room) with conductor Roderick Cox.
