SUMMARY:Autumn Concert: Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev & Wallen
DESCRIPTION:Errollyn Wallen — Mighty River\nProkofiev — Romeo and Juliet Suite No. 2\nRachmaninoff — Symphony No. 2\nWe are delighted to open our 2026-27 season — our 25th anniversary year — with this wonderful concert of colour, drama and Russian romance.\nErrollyn Wallen’s Mighty River opens the concert with a work of striking colour and emotional weight, composed to mark the bicentenary of the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade. Weaving fragments of the hymn “Amazing Grace” through a richly orchestrated soundscape, it moves from darkness towards hope and resolution.\nProkofiev’s Romeo and Juliet Suite No. 2 draws some of the ballet’s most powerful scenes into the concert hall, from the menace of the “Montagues and Capulets” to the tenderness of the balcony scene and the tragedy of Tybalt’s death. Prokofiev’s gift for vivid, theatrical orchestration makes this music as gripping without the dancers as with them.\nThe evening closes with Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2, a work of sweeping Romantic melody and deep emotional currents. Written after a long period of self-doubt following the failure of his First Symphony, it stands as one of the composer’s most personal and passionately lyrical achievements, building to a triumphant close.\nEvent details\n📍 Holy Trinity Church, Frome\n🗓️ Saturday 14 November\n🕖 7.30pm\nOur tickets can be printed at home or just turn up with the email ticket with the QR code.
