RO NOW
Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4
The best classical music, short and sweet!
This RO NOW you will hear the joys and struggles Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The Russian composer is known for the personal and emotional way he composed.
Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony is one of his most expressive works. The composer poured himself into the four movements: freedom, melancholy, playfulness and triumph. In the Last movement you can hear a celebratory reference to the Russian folk song Here stood a birch tree. Much of the inspiration came from Tchaikovsky's childhood in an apparently carefree Russia. But we all know that fate is never far away - especially in classical works. Yet life prevails, when at the end the euphoric orchestra drowns out the threatening tones. We open the evening with virtuosic orchestral fireworks by the Czech Smetana, his overture to his most famous opera.
RO NOW opens your ears, expands your view and deepens your taste.
On this night, immerse yourself in the in the best symphonic music. Short & sweet. With an enlightening intro by presenter (ánd concert pianist) Christiaan Kuyvenhoven about the piece, illustrated by the orchestra with examples. That way you hear more while listening. Afterwards you can hang out in the foyer where the beers are cold. The first drink is ours!
