Enigmatic Passion

Tchaikovsky’s Pathetique symphony portrays the full range of human emotions from hope through happiness to despair. Written just before he died, the true meaning of this most dramatic of symphonies remains an enigma. Popular young cellist Charlotte Miles returns to perform Elgar’s poignant cello concerto, written shortly before the death of his beloved wife Alice and his last major work. The concert opens with the dramatic overture to Verdi’s early opera Nabucco..
