In communist Russia, Soviet officials called it an 'optimistic tragedy'. Shostakovich simply called it his Tenth Symphony. Dark, tense, packed with secret messages and featuring at its centre a terrifying scherzo that might or might not be musical portrait of Stalin himself. Shostakovich's Tenth is one of the greatest of all 20th-century symphonies, and few living conductors understand it more intimately than RPO Music Director Vasily Petrenko. 'Shattering' and 'thrilling' were just two of the words that critics used to describe his recording of the Tenth Symphony.

Today, he probes its secrets once again, paired with a haunting Russian ballad for baritone and orchestra from Galina Ustvolskaya, a composition pupil of Shostakovich. At the centre, we are joined by one of Britain's best-loved pianists - Benjamin Grosvenor - in a very different masterpiece: the young Beethoven's exuberant First Piano Concerto.
This concert is generously supported by The Tong Family.

BREATHE FRESH AIR:
Get out, explore and enjoy London's abundant green spaces and surprising surrounding countryside. Improve your overall fitness levels. Take this opportunity to visit green parts of London, unknown to most people, and that you would not otherwise have an opportunity to see.

Social Event:
Our walks are social walks, where the emphasis is on meeting new people, enjoying nature, healthy exercise, and fresh air. Our walks are not interrupted with running commentaries or historical lectures, although occasionally features of significance may be pointed out. As such our walks will be continuous with few stops and it is your responsibilty to keep walkers ahead in view and to follow the direction of the walk. We always end the walk at a pub with a convivial atmosphere where the socialising can continue. Be sure to join us in the pub for the whole experience!

Please dress appropriately for weather and terrain conditions.

Only wear good sturdy shoes, with ankle support, and carry a bottle of water and necessary medication.

You need to be moderately fit for this walk and able to walk for at least 8 miles. This walk is suitable for the average experienced hill walker. Expect some hills. Do not attend this walk if you do not fit that description or if you have a medical condition (especially heart and/or lung conditions) that may impact upon your capability of completing the walk.

These walks are city walks and countryside walks where all the usual risks of injury during such walks apply resulting from interactions with road traffic, joggers, cyclists, e-scooters,other members of the public, animals (farm, domestic and wild), plants (allergic reactions), uneven surfaces, including portruding tree roots and potholes and there may be low overhanging branches.

In these walks we cross busy roads, use towpaths alongside water, bridlepaths, country lanes and sometimes ill defined paths and tracks through woodland, bush and countryside. Some tracks may be muddy and slippery, and conditions may be wet and icy. The walk leader is not and does not purport to be a professional guide, or a medical professional, but is instead a like minded individual who also enjoys hill walking and who is familiar with the intended route.

Do not attend this walk unless you accept and consent to the above risks. If you require insurance for these walks then you must arrange this yourself.

The myth behind the Chinese zodiac - Megan Campisi and Pen-Pen Chen

# data[].attributes.body
The seventh animal in the cycle of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs, the horse represents power, beauty, success and perserverence.

The last Year of the Horse was in 2014, and you’re known as a horse if you were born in 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, or 2002. If so, tradition has it that you’ll be presented with exciting new opportunities this year. And, being a horse, you’ll know just how to make the most of them: people born in this year are said to be confident, responsible, and friendly, although they're known to hate being reined in.
