Concert Information

The 成人论坛 Philharmonic take to the stage at City Hall, Sheffield for a programme of Elgar, Ravel and Vaughan Williams.

The 成人论坛 Philharmonic continues the season-long celebration of the 150th anniversary of Ralph Vaughan Williams鈥檚 birth with a performance of his 鈥楲ondon鈥� Symphony. One of the English composer鈥檚 most evocative and atmospheric creations, this symphony is an imaginative and colourful portrait of the bustling capital in the years before the First World War.

Conductor John Wilson opens this concert with a work by another 20th century English composer; Edward Elgar鈥檚 vigorously excited and lusciously romantic stroll around the city of London. Steven Osborne joins the orchestra to perform Ravel鈥檚 G major Piano Concerto, a work with a song-like slow movement of breath-taking beauty.
