Following 3 performances in Prague with the Czech Philharmonic from 28 February-2 March, March sees Semyon Bychkov record Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony at the Rudolfinum as part of his ongoing Tchaikovsky Project for Decca Classics.
Later in the month, Bychkov travels to Vienna to start rehearsals for 3 performances of Wagner’s Parsifal at the Wiener Staatsoper. Bychkov first conducted the same production by Alvis Hermanis in April last year producing as, Der Standard described, “glowing orchestral ecstasy… full of magical and richly coloured sounds.”
