Penrith Symphony Orchestra: Prokofiev and Tchaikovsky – Swan Lake
Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre Penrith, NSW, Australia
Dancing between yearning romanticism and neoclassical vigour, Prokofiev’s first violin concerto evokes an age of artistic transformation, the music as beautiful as it is idiosyncratic. A timeless classic, Swan Lake conjures fairy-tale magic and drama through Tchaikovsky’s whimsically colourful writing for the orchestra.
