Celebrate the sheer genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in a programme that explores the wealth of colours within his music. Mozart’s energetic Overture to The Magic Flute introduces his Horn Concerto No.2, performed by Alexander Edmundson.

Mozart’s Requiem offers a chance for reflection, showing a darker side to his writing. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra unites with the Leeds Philharmonic Choir for this powerful yet poignant masterpiece.
