RSNO section principal Nikita Naumov stars in this celebration of the double bass with Koussevitzky’s revered concerto. Although known for his tenure as music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Koussevitzky began his career as a touring double bass virtuoso. His love for the instrument is undeniable through his concerto; full of lush, sweeping melodies – it is heartachingly beautiful. With Gillian Moore guiding you and Mozart providing some jollity with his Symphony No35; it’s an hour of pure escapism.
