The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will make its long-awaited return to Bromley this spring for a delectable programme of classical masterpieces.
Led by conductor Courtney Lewis, the Orchestra will open the concert with layers of lively, fast-paced strings in the Overture to Mozart’s spirited operatic masterpiece, The Marriage of Figaro, followed by one of Mozart’s most beloved and expertly crafted pieces, Eine kleine Nachtmusik.
Also taking centre stage will be violinist Savitri Grier. Audiences will be able to hear this rising star perform one of the foremost violin concertos of the Romantic era, full of warmth and vitality, Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto.
Closing the concert will be one of the most instantly recognisable pieces of classical music; Beethoven’s Symphony No.5. Opening with four imposing notes, this piece has been sampled in every genre – from rock to disco – and here is your chance to hear it in its full, orchestral glory.
