CHARMING | CONTRASTING | COUNTRYSIDE

Experience a gentle journey through three very different musical worlds from lively drama to sparkling elegance, and finally to the peaceful beauty of the countryside. Conductor Tianyi Lu joins the orchestra, alongside two wonderful soloists: Alis Huws, former Royal Harpist, and Radio 3 New Generation Artist Elizaveta Ivanova on Flute.

The evening opens with Louise Farrenc鈥檚 Overture No. 2, a bold and colourful burst of energy. Farrenc鈥檚 music is being rediscovered by audiences everywhere, and this overture shows just how vivid and exciting her writing can be.

Mozart鈥檚 Concerto for Flute and Harp brings a complete change of atmosphere. Bright, graceful and full of charm, it highlights the shimmering combination of two instruments that rarely share the spotlight, creating a sound world that鈥檚 instantly appealing.

The concert closes with Beethoven鈥檚 much鈥憀oved Pastoral Symphony, a warm and joyful celebration of nature. From gentle streams and birdsong to a lively village scene and a dramatic storm, the music paints vivid pictures before finally settling into a feeling of calm.
