Prom 17 review – RPO in a beautifully played programme

August 02, 2024

“The orchestra was joined by Denis Kozhukhin for the Ravel, and together they gave a masterly performance. The outer movements were as brisk and near-ephemeral as you’d want, the sudden nonchalant shifts of texture and dynamic in the orchestra (yowling woodwind, silky strings, lacy harp passages; solos from perky clarinet, sad trombones and tin trumpets) all delivered with precision and commitment under Petrenko’s artful control. Kozhukhin’s playing style might best be described as ‘relaxed brilliance’: the busy sparkle of those glittering piano runs was full of understated virtuosity, and the slow hesitancy of the waltz of the middle movement was performed with just the right amount of introspective tristesse. One expected an encore full of vim and panache, but, instead, Kozhukhin opted for the perfect placement of the solemn chords of Tchaikovsky’s ‘In the Church’ from his Op. 39 Album for the Young.”
