Unfortunately, this concert has already taken place. But not to worry! We will be playing many more concerts soon.

Immerse yourself in symphonic music tonight, with a shot of Italian romance . During RO NOW you will get to know top works, and give your weekend a special twist. Each edition the conductor will briefly tell you more about the piece for a deeper musical experience. Tonight is all about compelling, sizzling, desperate romance. As it can only be in Italy.  

Conductor Valentina Peleggi takes you on a journey to her native country. For example, Edvard Grieg gave the score of his Piano Concerto in Rome to Franz Liszt – one of the first to see this piece. This encouraging encounter was 'of infinite significance' for Grieg. You will hear the romantic result tonight. And of course Romeo and Juliet cannot be missed in the rollercoaster of romantic emotion. Prokofiev wrote the ballet about these unhappy youngsters with typical Italian influences in mind; Peleggi lets you hear it. A whole new way to get to know the classical masters!  

RO NOW
