Brahms is at the forefront of this concert of Romantic masterpieces beginning with Swedish composer Britta Byström’s UK premiere of A Walk to Brahms’ Violin Concerto.
This short piece explores themes from Brahms’ Violin Concerto, coupled with a modern spirit. Then, head back in time to hear the original composition in full with the award-winning violinist, Inmo Yang.
Tchaikovsky’s magnificent Fifth Symphony takes us on an exhilarating journey from darkness to light; opening in a mood of sombre introspection, it ends in a spirit of triumphant jubilation. The slow second movement is a special treat, containing a gorgeous melody for solo horn that is one of Tchaikovsky’s most inspired creations.
