Programme

Concert information

Before making his name as a composer, Edward Elgar made his living as a violinist 鈥� which explains the extraordinary empathy he retained for string instruments of every size and scale. This soaring Violin Concerto could only have come from the pen of this most English and romantic of composers, and represents a huge technical challenge for any violinist who dares to take
it on.

Christian Tetzlaff is in the spotlight tonight, before John Storg氓rds conducts the orchestra in another work that sings of its composer鈥檚 homeland 鈥� Rachmaninov鈥檚 memorable Third Symphony.
