This rare visit from a Chinese orchestra comes with an unashamedly spectacular line-up. Tan Dun’s brilliantly evocative music from the hit movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sets the scene for two contrasting showpieces for violin, performed by British violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen. Saint-Saëns’ 1867 Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso was dedicated to the famed virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate and its darting brilliance was tailored to his impregnable technique. Chausson’s free-flowing Poème presents an equally steep challenge to the soloist, its rhapsodic and moody character inspired by Eugène Ysaÿe’s feverish expressive playing. Two of Respighi’s technicolour symphonic poems – inspired by famous sights in and around Rome – ensure a suitably cinematic finale.

Tan Dun - Excerpts from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Camille Saint-Saëns - Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso
Ernest Chausson - Poème
Ottorino Respighi - Fountains of Rome | Pines of Rome
