Tickets "at the door" - until sold out
  1. The Hebrides Overture Op 26 - Felix Mendelssohn
  2. Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in D minor - Robert Schumann
  3. Symphony No 2 in C Op 61 - Robert Schumann

Mendelssohn’s overture is a vivid evocation of the sea and Scottish islands. Schumann’s Violin Concerto is full of the composer’s personal lyricism and invention. A strong influence on the later violin concerto of Brahms, its slow movement is particularly beautiful, and the piece as a whole is unjustly neglected.

The second symphony is the most taut and dramatic of Schumann’s four, dating from around the time of the Piano Concerto. The lyrical slow movement leads to a jubilant finale.
