Tchaikovsky Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture

Rachmaninov Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini

Zemlinsky The Mermaid

Kevin John Edusei Conductor / Makoto Ozone Piano

What would you do for love? Romeo and Juliet risked everything, and Tchaikovsky poured all of this passion into his music. The Little Mermaid also followed her heart, and Zemlinsky’s gorgeous retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairy tale is a colourful - and gripping - masterpiece. Kevin John Edusei conducts and RSNO favourite Makoto Ozone is the soloist in Rachmaninov’s dazzling, deliriously romantic Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. The perfect date night? We think so!
