Philzuid

Rhapsody in Blue

Tickets
Philzuid presents an evening brimming with musical adventures. Stravinsky’s Petrushka, Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and Poulenc’s Les Biches together form an unforgettable programme that brings classical and modern together in an inspiring way.
Stravinsky’s Petrushka, originally written for the legendary Ballets Russes, shines here in the beloved 1947 version. This piece adds extra dynamism to the piano and percussion, and gives chief conductor Duncan Ward the opportunity to showcase the orchestra at its most sparkling.
 
Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue is also not to be missed: an irresistible mix of classical grandeur and swinging jazz. World star Alexandre Tharaud takes his seat at the piano and brings this gem to life. Poulenc’s Les Biches adds a playful note to the evening. This charming work combines light melodies with French elegance.
