A 3-days “War and Peace” Festival will present music of Russian and English composers of the 20th century preformed by London Philharmonic and Russian National Orchestra. These two orchestras are connected with one of the most talented conductors Vladimir Jurovsky who founded the project. For almost ten years he was a guest conductor of the Russian National Orchestra and did a lot of programmes in Russia and abroad. In 2007 Maestro Jurovsky became an 11th Chief conductor of the London Philharmonic.
On October, 3 Vladimir Jurovsky and LPO will present Sinfonia da Requiem by B. Britten, excerpts from Prokofiev’s “War and Peace” opera and Viola concerto by W.Walton with Lawrence Power as a soloist.
On October, 4 RNO will perform in Royal Festival Hall. The programme includes Symphony №6 by Vaughan-Williams and Prokofiev №5.
The culmination of the project is supposed to be an unexampled joint concert on October, 5: both orchestras' best musicians combined in one big orchestra will perform Tchaikovsky Overture “1812”, Britten Lachrymae, Reflections on a song of Dowland for viola and string orchestra (Lawrence Power) and the “Leningrad” Symphony by Shostakovich.
