The Slavic soul is passionate. Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto promises dizzying exuberance, melancholy and lyricism. The Second Symphony and Polovtsian Dances of his fellow countryman Borodin complete the programme. It doesn't get any more Russian than that! This is how the Flanders Symphony Orchestra is welcoming the new year, as Сымфониеоркест Влаандерен. Cheers!
