About this event

Alice Mary Smith was a formidably talented mid-nineteenth century composer who as far as is known wrote the first symphony produced by a woman in this country. The Masque of Pandora was not completed before her untimely death, but its overture is a lively and attractive piece.

Britten鈥檚 early and lyrical concerto for violin and viola is 鈥渁 wonderfully distinctive and characterful work鈥 (The Guardian) and well worth this rare hearing.

Beethoven鈥檚 fifth symphony, from the most famous opening in music, builds steadily through its four movements from dramatic struggle, through doubt and uncertainty, to a blazing, triumphant conclusion.
