John Storgards (conductor)
The programme begins and ends with Nordic music; Grieg's entrancing miniatures from Peer Gynt combines character, melody and atmosphere. The concert closes with Sibelius's First Symphony, his powerfully individual voice clearly heard even whilst the great Russian composers cast their shadow. New Generation Artist Narek Hakhnazaryan joins the orchestra for Elgar's wistful Cello Concerto.
