Concert Information

Rising star of the podium Ben Gernon conducts the orchestra in Beethoven鈥檚 remarkable 鈥楨roica鈥 Symphony. A landmark in the history of music, this astonishing work initially baffled Beethoven鈥檚 contemporaries but was soon being hailed as a masterpiece, a token of the composer鈥檚 heroism in the face of adversity, and particularly his increasing deafness.
The orchestra鈥檚 exceptional Principal French horn Alberto Menendez is soloist in Mozart鈥檚 Fourth Horn Concerto. Its delightful bravura finale (and yes, you know it!) is one of the most famous ever written.
The evening begins with Tchaikovsky鈥檚 great interpretation of Romeo and Juliet. He claimed Shakespeare鈥檚 play perfectly suited his musical nature: 鈥淣o kings, no marches 鈥 Just love, love, love!鈥.
