Tears. Riddles.A musical portrait like no other.
Elgar’s Enigma Variations is undoubtedly one of the most popular pieces of music out there, and it’s easy to see why.
It's an amiable portrait of his friends, each portrayed with the composer's trademark charm, wit, invention and sentiment. There are mischievous dogs, ocean-going steamers and summer walks, and we defy you not to have a tear in your eye for ‘Nimrod’.
Also in the programme, star pianist Alexandre Kantorow performs Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No.3.
