FRIDAY CONCERT, FRIDAY APRIL 28TH AT 8PM
Paul Herriott presents tonight's concert live from the National Concert Hall in Dublin. Full of shimmering, shadow-cast beauty, Dublin-born John Kinsella’s sublime Elegy for Strings provides a poetic prelude to Sofia Gubaidulina’s searching, soaring Violin Concerto, Offertorium, with Vadim Gluzman – ‘one of today’s top violinists’ (The Washington Post) – at its darkly glittering helm. Brahms’ Third Symphony boasts all the intricacy of his chamber music and the complexity of his works for piano in a deeply-felt masterpiece whose confessional intimacy is intensely moving.
