Programme Note
Our summer concert “Summer Romance” will be an evening of beautiful classical music for a warm summer’s evening. The programme includes Delius’s “A Song Before Sunrise” written in summer 1918 towards the end of the first world war with evocative sounds of nature and the “Symphony in D” by the Spanish composer Juan Crisostomo de Arriaga written in 1826 shortly before his premature death at the age of 19. The concert will also feature two outstanding soloists – the orchestra’s leader Sarah Colley in Svendsen’s “Romance for violin” and Amelia Hale in Glazunov’s “Saxophone Concerto”.
