Concerts
Join us as our Spring Concert gets off to a jubilant start with Mexican composer Arturo Márquez’s sensual Danzón No. 2 which fuses Latin American folk with classical traditions. The fusion of Latin American and classical is also found throughout Bernstein’s thrilling Symphonic Dances from West Side Story. The musical is, of course, based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, and in the second half of the concert we present a selection of the sensational music from Sergei Prokofiev’s ballet version of the story. A concert not to be missed!

Our summer concert opens with the overture from Berlioz’s opera Béatrice et Bénédict, based on a subplot from Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. Rosalind Ventris, one of the country’s most prominent soloists, joins us for York Bowen's Viola Concerto, a great romantic masterpiece. Jean Sibelius was one of the most important symphonists of the 20th century. Influenced by Tchaikovsky, his first symphony is lushly romantic and full of Sibelius’ distinctive musical idiom. Join us for an evening of compelling music in the finale of our 2024-2025 season.
