Janáček Lachian Dances
Gershwin Variations on ‘I Got Rhythm’
Brubeck Brandenburg Gate
Dvořák Symphony No.7
Got rhythm? Freddy Kempf has – and he’ll show it off tonight with the Brno Philharmonic.
Kempf, a former BBC Young Musician of the Year, will be on double duty for two American classics: Gershwin’s electrifying ‘I Got Rhythm’ variations and Dave Brubeck’s Brandenburg Gate, joined by a trio of leading Czech jazz musicians.
And who better to perform the greatest Czech composers than one of the nation’s finest orchestras? The Brno Philharmonic open tonight with Janáček’s evocative Lachian Dances and close with Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony – not his most famous, but widely regarded as his best
