A pianist described as “a born Chopin interpreter” by Arthur Rubinstein features in the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’s Corn Exchange concert on 2 November.
Janina Fialkowska – who recovered from cancer surgery that left her unable to lift her arm in 2002 – leads the orchestra through a programme featuring Chopin’s Piano Concerto No 2, which she describes as “a piece of total perfection, full of drama, full of technical wizardry and full of melodies to melt your heart”.
The programme also features Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture, Elgar’s ‘Enigma’ Variations and Vaughan Williams’ The Wasps Overture. Tickets start from £12.50 for those under 26, or from £32.
