A fairground in old Russia – and as the crowds jostle and shout, the adventures of the puppet Petrushka are just another sideshow. But Stravinsky’s riotous ballet has a sting in its tail: the climax of a concert that takes in a classic score from the composer of The Godfather, a swinging trip to jazz-age Harlem, and the genius of rising trumpet star Simon Höfele, in a concerto that’s drenched in the Blues.
