ROYAL CHORAL SOCIETY: RUSSIAN CONCERT
Start time: 7.30pm
Alexander Nevsky, a seven-movement cantata for mezzo-soprano, choir and orchestra, is based on Prokoviev's score for Eisenstein's 1938 film of the same name which celebrated the thirteenth-century Russian prince Grand Duke Alexander's decisive victory over an invading force of Teutonic knights. This concert will serve as a reminder of the incredible contribution of Russian music to the Western canon. With performers of the highest calibre, this will be a truly evocative concert.
