He noted that the repertoire represented an East-West geopolitical progression (Central Asia-Russia-Europe): Tles Kazhgaliev - The Steppe Legend; Sergei Rachmaninoff - Concerto No.3 in D minor for Piano & Orchestra, op.30; Johannes Brahms - Symphony No.1 in C minor, op.68. It was, apparently, a wonderful concert in any case. I have a friend who went to see the Symphony Orchestra of Kurmangazy, National Conservatory of Kazakhstan, at the Barbican in London last night.
