In a statement, The Orchestra said the decision was based on " here and now".
It added: " A member of The Orchestra has family directly involved in the Ukraine situation and We Are trying to respect That situation during The Immediate term.
" There were also two military themed pieces as part of the programme - Marche Slave and 1812 Overture - That we felt were particularly inappropriate at This Time .
" We were also made aware at The Time That the title Little Russian of Symphony No 2 was deemed offensive to Ukrainians.
" Whilst there are no plans to repeat the Tchaikovsky concert at The Moment , we have no plans to change our summer and autumn programmes which contain pieces by Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev and Rimsky-Korsakof. So, in summary, this is a one-off decision made with The Best of intentions. "
