Great Symphonies: Tchaikovsky's Pathetique @ Caird Hall - February 3rd, 2011 @ 7.30 pm
Tchaikovsky's symphonies aren't just about the melodies: they're no-holds-barred emotional autobiographies, bursting at the seams with all the composer's hopes, fears and desperate passions. The Pathetique is the most overwhelming of them all. Plus keyboard fireworks too, as the supremely talented Gabriela Montero tackles Prokofiev's best-loved piano concerto. Andrey Boreyko image.
