Anthony Marwood’s first appearance with the ACO in 2006 was rapturously received by audiences and critics alike. This versatile performer (violinist, actor and dancer) returns to lead the ACO in exceptional and stimulating music-making.
Schumann originally conceived his Cello Concerto as a violin concerto. Anthony Marwood performs a version for violin and strings, casting new light on a beloved work. Schumann’s music is rarely conventional and this concerto is no exception: songlike expressiveness takes precedence over virtuosic display and it resembles chamber music in its conversational intimacy. An apt showcase, then, for a musician like Marwood, who moves from trios to concertos with ease.
