In no other violin concerto is the soloist’s first note - so delicately dissonant and offbeat - more beautiful than in Sibelius’ Violin Concerto. Performed by one of Britain’s leading violinists, Matthew Trusler, this piece demonstrates Sibelius’ passion for the violin and complete understanding of the sound of the instrument.
Led by young Spanish maestro Eduardo Portal, the world-famous Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will open with the Overture to Weber’s opera Oberon. Dreamily unfolding with a ‘magic horn call,' this piece is full of mythical themes and is sure to spark your imagination.
Closing this opening concert is Beethoven’s delightful Symphony No.6, known as the ‘Pastoral’ Symphony for its irresistible depictions of the charms of country life.
