Labèque, Boléro: Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in Liverpool
Labèque, Boléro: Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
The glamourous Labèque sisters join the RLPO in an exciting programme of French composers under the baton of Kazushi Ono.
“So much glamour and charm surrounds the Labèque sisters, it’s hard not to drown in misty-eyed admiration.” Critics tend to lose their heads over Katia and Marielle Labèque. When these extraordinary French sisters take the stage, you’re guaranteed dazzling piano playing, sparkling wit and an unmistakably Gallic joie de vivre. Add Poulenc’s fizzy Concerto for Two Pianos, and you can double the fun! And that’s just the mouth-watering entrée in tonight’s French feast; also on the menu is a sunny little symphony by the teenage Bizet and the ravishing Second Suite from Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé. Guest conductor Kazushi Ono knows exactly how to make these scores – and your spines – tingle. Anything for afters? Well, only the smouldering passion of Ravel’s Boléro!
Choose from the wide variety of high-calibre concerts offered in Liverpool this season.
