We are delighted to welcome the outstanding young violinist Nazrin Rashidova (see April 18th) to play Mendelssohn’s superb Violin Concerto.

 

A keen traveller, Mendelssohn was one of many Romantic artists from northern regions to experience a longing for southern climes. His glorious Italian Symphony is an exhilarating and intoxicating evocation of his travels in Italy.

 

We begin the concert with Schubert’s 5th Symphony, surely one of the most charming and delightful pieces of music ever written.
