Ripon International Festival Orchestra of Opera North

Janusz Piotrowicz conductor

Verdi: Overture: The Force of Destiny

Tchaikovsky: Fantasy: Romeo and Juliet

Borodin: Polovtsian Dances

Brahms: Symphony No 1 in C minor

Under the electrically charged baton of our Artistic Director the orchestra plays music of intoxicating beauty and searing drama.  From Verdi’s portentous overture through the heart-rending narrative of Romeo and Juliet, to Borodin’s glorious work of exotic melodies and vibrant rhythms, the concert concludes with soaring expressiveness and moments of melting lyricism in Brahms’ magnificent symphony.

‘power and introspection … a profound performance .. full of integrity’ The Guardian

‘sheer exhilaration … yet again, the Orchestra was on top form, responsive and alert to everything Piotrowicz demanded of them …  this was spine-tingling stuff’ Music Web International (Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Royal Albert Hall)
