Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2
Mahler Symphony No. 5

When Robert Trevino stepped in at short notice in 2013 to conduct a performance at Moscow’s Bolshoi Theatre, he became an overnight sensation. Lauded for the colour and detail of his direction, he has since earned a reputation for his revelatory interpretations of Mahler’s symphonies, so this is a chance to hear him at his very best.

The grandeur of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony, with its soaring trajectory from melancholy to elation, is the perfect partner for emotional candour of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Made famous in the 1945 film Brief Encounter, its sumptuous slow movement is almost impossible to resist.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
