    About this event

    Continuing our celebration of Nielsen鈥檚 150th anniversary, his Second Symphony is an exercise in contrasting moods and textures 鈥� the 鈥楾emperaments鈥� of the subtitle are the Humours of Greco-Roman medicine: Choleric, Phlegmatic, Melancholic and Sanguine. Less familiar are Nielsen鈥檚 choral works 鈥� the swelling loveliness of Hymnus amoris, inspired by a Titian painting, and the Three Motets that pay homage to Renaissance polyphony. Completing the programme is Brahms鈥檚 warmly Romantic Violin Concerto, with Danish-Israeli Nikolaj Znaider.
