VENUE NOTE
The people of Hamburg are in luck. During the Czech Philharmonic’s April tour, they’ll be the only audience to hear both of the programmes the orchestra has prepared. The second evening of the residency at the magnificent Elbphilharmonie will bring Mendelssohn, Bartholdy, and Stravinsky to the stage. After Mendelssohn’s Italian Symphony, the orchestra—under the direction of Chief Conductor Semyon Bychkov—will perform The Rite of Spring.
