Name: Tchaikovsky - Symphony No. 3
Start: 2025-11-09T19:30:00+01:00

Under the direction of Ian Arthur Plansker, Orchestra Lagrandt, a newly formed period-instrument ensemble, returns for their second concert in Amsterdam. They will perform Tchaikovsky’s Third Symphony “Polish”, a new premiere by Plansker, and selected arrangements by François-Auguste Gevaert, one of Tchaikovsky’s influences.
Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 3
This symphony, often called “the Polish”, holds a unique place in the composer’s output. It neither wrestles with the classical structure as his first two symphonies do, nor does it yet reflect the full individuality of his later symphonies. Instead, it paints a picture of the artist coming into his own—it’s a work of exuberance and growing confidence. Throughout the symphony, listeners are treated to Tchaikovsky’s signature pathos, moments of triumph, and early hints of the orchestral magic that would later define his ballets.
