Summary
“Pathétique,” Tchaikovsky’s last and most famous symphony is filled with passion and emotion. Those who remember the dynamic and exciting Phillipe Quint from previous appearances with the LPO are already looking forward to his interpretation of 20th-century composer William Schuman’s Violin Concerto. For those hearing Phillipe Quint for the first time, you will come to agree with one critic who labeled him a “Legend in the Making”.
