³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

Sir Andrew Davis conducts Elgar’s evergreen ‘Enigma’ Variations before the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ SO is joined by the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Symphony Chorus and superb soloists for Bliss’s powerful cantata, The Beatitudes.

A half dozen of Varése’s finest scores for orchestra round off the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Symphony Orchestra’s 360-degree exploration of the maverick composer’s works.

Two works by two Hungarian composers sit side by side in a dramatic highlight of the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ SO’s season – Bartók’s virtuosic Concerto for Orchestra and the UK premiere of living composer Peter Eötvös’s one-act opera, Senza Sangue.

Experience the music of Scandinavian contemporaries Nielsen and Sibelius, whose music is close to the heart of the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Symphony Orchestra’s Chief Conductor Sakari Oramo

Lothar Koenigs conducts Bruckner’s hugely popular symphony, while Nicolas Hodges is soloist in the irrepressible German composer Wolfgang Rihm’s beautiful Second Piano Concerto.
