Thailand Philharmonic Orchestra

One of the world’s most engaging trumpet soloists, Rex Richardson joins TPO to perform a work written specifically for him by US composer James Stephenson – the “Rextreme Concerto”. The musical fireworks continue as TPO with principal guest conductor Claude Villaret performs Stravinsky’s Firebird, and concludes with Kabalevsky’s Overture “Colas Breugnon”.
