Program
Behind every great piece is a great story. Have a read through the program book to get all the details.
Mozart’s Symphony No.25, written when he was just 17, is compelling music that brings to light his startling, expressive maturity – moving between edge-of-the-seat drama to calmness and on to a swelling finale, creating a journey from the serious to the thrilling.
Schubert’s Ninth Symphony, known as his Great symphony, certainly deserves its nickname – amazing us with sublime melodies inspired by Romantic ideals of beauty and expression. Our performance is complete with the astonishingly beautiful sounds of our Principal Trumpet David Elton performing Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto.
