Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
Domingo Hindoyan conductor
Guy Johnston cello

Roberto Sierra Fandangos
Elgar Cello Concerto
Rachmaninov Symphonic Dances

From Dublin’s twin city comes the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic with its Chief Conductor Domingo Hindoyan and exceptional cellist Guy Johnston for Elgar’s bleak but beautiful Cello Concerto, an emotion-filled high-watermark of modern English music.

Dance dominates Roberto Sierra’s Fandangos in a set of vibrant orchestral variations with distinctive Spanish trumpets and castanets to the fore. Quoting from several of his major works, Rachmaninov’s leave-taking Symphonic Dances wrestles with death in music put through the emotional wringer.
