Composer:
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky

Conductor:
Vasily Petrenko

Background: Written between the fourth and fifth symphonies, Tchaikovsky’s programmatic Manfred Symphony, inspired by Byron’s dramatic poem of the same name, contains some of the composer’s most thrillingly orchestrated music and best tunes.

For Tchaikovsky, as for Byron, Manfred represented the figure of the outsider, an outcast from society. Petrenko’s Liverpool debut with the Phil in November 2004, and subsequent appearances in October and December 2005, created huge excitement: '...memorable for the sheer electricity emanating from the podium. Instantly there was a sense of dialogue between conductor and musicians, between one orchestral family and another, between one phrase and the next, to release natural-seeming eloquence from his players.' - The Daily Telegraph.
