Stockport Symphony Orchestra - Grieg and Elgar

Bach - Fantasia and Fugue in C minor

Grieg - Piano Concerto

Elgar - Symphony No 1

Conductor - Philip Ellis

Soloist - Liana Storey

It’s not often you hear Bach played by a symphony orchestra these days but this is something different - Bach arranged by Elgar. A stunning reimagining of a classic Bach organ work.

The Grieg needs no introduction and it’s played tonight by the exceptionally talented Japanese-British pianist, Liana Storey.

And in part two, one of those beloved , iconic pieces which are quintessentially English in character by the arranger of the Bach.
