NSO Concert

Sunday 25 June 2017
15:30

As the North Norfolk Coast begins to move out of Covid-19 lockdown, and tourism businesses re-open, more planned events are taking place. These are just listings, so please follow links and check with organisers of events before assuming events are running.

Brief Encounters - The two mighty works in this programme are both referred to as “cinematic”, although in neither case was this intended by the composer

Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No. 2 - soloist: Viv McLean
Shostakovich: Symphony No. 11

Rachmaninov’s gorgeous Piano Concerto No.2 is, for many people, always associated with the soundtrack of the film Brief Encounter. Shostakovich’s titanic 11th Symphony, on the other hand was written as a response to the massacre of protestors by the Russian Imperial Guard, which led to the 1905 Revolution. This has been described as “a film score without a film” as it depicts the events of the day in one huge sweep of narrative sound.

Price: £16 for adults, £8 for children, first 100 under 18s go free max. 3 per adult

Location: King’s Lynn Corn Exchange
