The evening also features one of Denmark’s most versatile and renowned concert pianists, Søren Rastogi who will present Rachmaninoff’s beloved and frequently played work, the Piano Concerto No.2, known for its lush orchestration, string of memorable themes and the sheer overwhelming emotion of it all. The concert culminates with Symphony No. 5 by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, specially commissioned by the Finnish government in honour of his 50th birthday.
