TITLE: Royal Philharmonic Orchestra --- SUBTITLE: Tchaikovsky 2 --- DATE/TIME: Thursday 24 June 2027, 7.30pm --- PROGRAMME: Fyodor Akimenko – Angel, Poem-Nocturne; Stravinsky – Violin Concerto; Tchaikovsky – Symphony No. 2, ‘Little Russian’ --- PERFORMERS: Kirill Karabits OBE (conductor); Liya Petrova (violin, RPO Artist-in-Residence 2026–27); Royal Philharmonic Orchestra --- EVENT COPY: Stravinsky's Violin Concerto begins with a chord once thought impossible, though with a violinist as brilliant as Liya Petrova ("exquisite" – The Guardian), the impossible comes as standard. It's the centrepiece of a concert filled with melodies close to Ukrainian guest conductor Kirill Karabits' heart, including the rarely-heard Angel by Fyodor Akimenko, and Tchaikovsky's Ukrainian-folk-inspired "Little Russian" Symphony. --- DURATION: Approx. 2 hours 10 mins (incl. interval) --- TICKET PRICES: £60, £50
