Upcoming Concerts


Next Concert: Tchaikovsky's 4th

Picture
Date: 15 June 2013, Saturday
Time: 7.30pm
Venue: School of the Arts Concert Hall
Christopher Adey, conductor

WOLFGANG A. MOZART                             Symphony No. 40, KV 550        Listen on Spotify
PYTOR I. TCHAIKOVSKY                              Symphony No. 4, Op. 36          Listen on Spotify

Principal Guest Conductor Christopher Adey returns to conduct the Orchestra of the Music Makers in two cornerstones of the symphonic repertoire.
Mozart’s 40th is easily one of the most recognisable and popular pieces of classical music. It shows the composer at his most inventive, elegantly lyrical yet coloured by a restless undercurrent.
Tchaikovsky's intensely dramatic 4th Symphony is an epic, with fate, "that fateful force which prevents the impulse to happiness from attaining its goal, which jealously ensures that peace and happiness shall not be complete and unclouded”, at its centre of its powerful discourse. 

Tickets will go on sale on the 1st of May!
