The Czech Philharmonic kicks off its new season with an appearance from pianist Daniil Trifonov, who joins visiting conductor Charles Dutoit in a rarity by Dvořák: his Piano Concerto, premiered in Prague in 1878. For the concert’s second half, Dutoit and the Philharmonic tackle one of the quintessential works of musical Romanticism: Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique of 1830, a work of wild imagination that portrays an artist’s opium-fuelled daydreams turning into the nightmare of a Witches’ Sabbath and then a March to the Scaffold that brings one of the most thrilling orchestral showpieces in the repertoire to a rousing conclusion.
